Note for Haloscan Users: Haloscan started (the end of July) rejecting trackbacks if they were submitted "too rapidly" by the same host. I don't know what the timer is but it is long enough so that it was very difficult to ping everyone that is using Haloscan for trackbacks. I'm sure that they are doing this to try to hold back the tide of trackback spam but it makes the service pretty useless for carnival type posts. Perhaps you can contact them and urge some different solution. Update: Typepad appears to be doing the same thing. Everytime I update the Ark it appears the timers are reset and the long list of MT autogenerated pings fail. Yecchhhh....
Ping shows off all his latest moves!

Posted by Josh Poulson at December 2, 2005 9:06 PMYou Don't Want To Mess With Gabriel, his image server moved yet again, and its presence is propagating even now. This is getting to be too much like a Burma Shave sign:
Our server
It lives at your place
Let's move it now
Through hyperspace
Well microwave links
They flutter and sput
Let's move it again
To the server farm hut
Connections
Are more certain now
And download speeds
you know are like Wow!
One hopes
(with apologies to those that shave)
poets...
You Don't Want To Mess With Gabriel, take two

Here's my furry friday link ... a furry Sheltie!

Posted by Dawn N. at December 3, 2005 7:20 AMThe links to Bud and Gabriel are engaged in some form of unholy union. Gabriel is busy maintaining an attitude about other things, and imperiously couldn't care less, but perhaps Bud is interested in some eyeball strokes.
Thanks!
