I’ve emailed Rene privately to try and point him/her (it’s a French name for a bloke but over here usually female so I’m unsure, sorry) in the right direction of a product I think they could develop that would have substance, but not this.

Pinging has been around since before WordPress 1.0 (we’re talking pre Jan ’04) – http://wordpress.org/development/2004/01/wordpress-10/

But that’s not pinging blog SE’s.

Good luck to them – if they can sell it, more power to them . But to be honest I don’t see bloggers paying for it.
