Ping Receivers

These services index and aggregate microformats and are automatically notified of Pingerati updates.

Do you have a service that uses microformats and would like to receive microformat pings? Contact us and let us know which specific microformat pings you want to receive (or all microformats). See the About page for details of the types checked. Be sure provide us with your HTTP GET REST API for your ping receiver, as well as a nice logo graphic.

Microformats and Pingerati

Microformats are tiny bits of markup in web pages that label contacts, events, reviews, addresses, geo-locations, and other commonly published chunks of information. Microformats are often published on blogs and in feeds, but are increasingly published on other types of web pages as well such as event databases, social network profiles, reviews sites, and contact information pages. Traditional ping services only handle blog or feed updates, so we've set up Pingerati to handle microformat updates on any web page.

Ping Distribution

Pingerati is also a ping router (multiplexer). Pingerati receives updates of pages with microformats from numerous sources, and sends those pings to services that support microformats. Details here.
