im still not seeing dratfink on the recently updated page for weblogs.com.
Have you made a post since I changed it earlier today? They are no longer sending their spider out hourly. Now they will only send the spider out (on the hour) if you have notified them sometime within the last hour that your page has changed. So when you post, this system should send the message, and then whenever the next hour hits their spider should come to verify that your page has changed, and then you should show up.
Of course, it might not be working for some reason. It won't work if you just edit a post, so also it won't work if you post as a 'preview' and then really post it by editing and changing it to a regular post. I will be adding an optional check box to the edit page so that you can notify userland on edits as well, but that's not in place yet.
