Pinging a new Blogger Post, with a long list of Ping Services can be very easy for any blogger that publishes their new blog post with “Windows Live Writer”.

What is pinging, you ask?

Pinging a Blogger blog post, is a quick way to notify search engines that you have just published new content on your blog. Sure the search engines will crawl your new blog post eventually on their own. Why wait for the search engines to decide when to visit your blog?

This is why pinging a blog is beneficial, by pinging our own blog, we give a boost to our new blog post, to allow them to be updated on search engines like Google, sooner rather than later.

We can use services like pingomatic.com to manually ping a list of servers, or for everyone that works with “Windows Live Writer”, we can enjoy the benefits of having our new blog post ping every single server in the list below automatically, each time we post a new Blogger post, here’s how.

• Copy the list of URL’s below
• Open “Windows Live Writer”, & go to Tools –> Options –> Ping Servers
• Paste the list of servers into the textbox, in the “Ping Servers” textbox
• Click: Apply –> Ok

Step 2: Click on the “Link” URL, Upper Right Side of your browser window (see screenshot).

Step 3: Right click on the “Paste HTML to embed in website” textbox, & copy that code to your PC clipboard.

Step 4: Select how you want the Map to be aligned in your blog post (left, center, or right).

Step5: Click the “Insert Google Code” button in the “Google Maps Plugin” (when you click the button, the code from Google Maps will be pasted into the plugin).

I’ve been busy today, writing my first published plugin for Windows Live Writer.

My new “Insert MP3 Player” plugin is a small Quiktime MP3 player that can be embedded in blog post.

I’ve only tested this on:

• Internet Explorer (8.0)
• Firefox (3.0.1)
• Blogger

I built my “Insert MP3 Player” plugin with the free version of “VB.net 2005 Express”. The plugin can be downloaded, on the “Windows Live Writer Plugin Gallery”.

Here is how to install the MP3 plugin:

• Make sure that “Windows Live Writer” is closed
• Download the MP3 plugin to your PC desktop
• After the Plugin is downloaded to your PC desktop, double click the MSI Installer
• Follow the instructions in the MSI Installer, the plugin will be installed in your PC, at “C:\Program Files\Windows Live\Writer\Plugins” by default.

Below is the plugin in action..
