Added the following to the function ping_ping in ping.module to get blog pinging technorati.
// PCW
$client = new xmlrpc_client("/rpc/ping", "rpc.technorati.com", 80);
$message = new xmlrpcmsg("weblogUpdates.ping", array(new xmlrpcval($name), new xmlrpcval($url)));
$result = $client->send($message);
if (!$result || $result->faultCode()) {
watchdog("error", "failed to notify 'technorati.com' (site)");
}
unset($client);
I'll test whether it works by seeing if this posting is pinged.
Update: no errors in the log files, looks ok.

Can't you ask somebody to add this to the next Drupal release?
