I want to build a site like <[login to view URL]> for blogs where it indexes blogs and every time a blog entered into my database is updated, it will ping my site and show the latest blogs updated. Basically I am going to have a blog directory.
I would like a site admin where I can add categories of blogs and have some sort of content management system and I want users to be able to submit their blogs and whenever they post to their blog, they can come to my site and manually ping it like this:
<[login to view URL]>
Or if their blogging software allows, I would like an XML-RPC interface for automatic pings.
Look at Technorati for any questions, however they have more features than I need.
