  If I edit an entry I already posted, does the Update Services in my WordPress blog send out the edited version also?

  Actually, I don’t think so. People have tried to continuously edit things so they were pinging repeatedly, then they complained in the forum that the latest pings didn’t “take” and found out that the ping was sent out only at the time the original post went up.

  I wonder if there is a “last ping” being stored. I can understand not allowing a ping to happen if someone keeps publishing an edit every minute. But, if a change was made an hour later, then a ping would be logical. I’d like to see the official word on this one. :-)

  I know for a fact that Pingoat won’t accept more than one ping per hour, and I’d be quite surprised if Pingomatic (the one WP.com uses) isn’t the same. Otherwise they’d be hammered relentlessly by bots.

  Exactly. That’s why I’m thinking that it probably does ping, but only after a certain time period has elapsed.
