Most blog software will do this for you, but may not Pingz the RSS pheed.

The reason to create RSS pheeds is because that's what's being "pinged". Pingz submits your RSS pheed to RSS engines and directories (via Ping O Matic), much like search engine submission software submits pages to the major web search engines.

RSS is used for updates, so instaed of sumbitting 1000 pages, you submit one pheed and when it is updated, the pheed is "pinged" so your updates are picked up by all the RSS resources.

Yes, please post on the other source, as Pingz hasn't been released to the public yet and much of this has already been posted.
