blogger trackback

A recent post of mine by the name of TrackBack in blogger described how to add trackback notification ability to blogger.com based blogs. The solution described requires Firefox and Greasemonky. Having worked on another computer, I did not want to install Firefox and decided to check for standalone trackback solutions. Running a quick search in Google was all it took to find the following Standalone Trackback Pinger. All you need are the following details to use it:
1. The trackback URL of the post you link to.
2. The Permanent URL of your post.
3. Your blog name.
4. Your post's title.
5. Up to 250 characters excerpt of your post.

Richard,
Having wondered for a while why blogger does not support trackbacks, I was sure that someone already solved this issue.
Lucky for us that this was the case.

Hey, thanks for putting this up. Much appreciated.

Muckdog,
My pleasure.
I am really expecting the day when blogger.com starts supporting this by itself.

Hi Ohad,

A year and a half later and still no trackback support in Blogger :-) Thanks for your post, the standalone tool works great.

Happy blogging,
Gary
