weblogs.com is a userland site that acts as a central index of weblogs that have been recently updated. Userland products (frontier, manilla, and radiouserland) are plugged into this index, but any weblog can patch into it as well using either SOAP, XML-RPC, or just manually hitting a web page that will register your update with the system.

To make your page here automatically notify userland just go to [editpage] and change 'notify userland of updates' from 'no notification' to 'notify'. Also, fill in the name of your weblog as you want it to appear at weblogs.com in the space below marked 'page name' (this is different from 'title' which is what goes in the top line of the surfers browsers - so, dave's page has a title of 'do you hear me, do you care' but the page name is 'dratfink'.)

Now every time you post, this system sends an XML-RPC call to weblogs.com and you should get some sort of sucess or error message back.
