Q: 

How to test if my pingback was successful?

Hi,

I'm currently writing the pinging-back code of a blogging platform. Pingbacks work at localhost, but I want to test if they work when pinging a 3rd-party service. Is there any website or any other solution which will show me once it received a pingback from me?

Thanks.

You can create a blog account on a free blogging service (like blogger.com) and test your pingback implementation.

I think that doesn't work. I believe those types of blogs accept trackbacks only, which differs in format from pingbacks.

Both http://www.typepad.com/ and http://wordpress.com/ support pingbacks and can be used for free.
