pingie rss feedJust this morning I was replying to my friend Mark about a service I’d used in the past to receive automated notifications when a web site posted a new story. My (former) favorite service that I’d recommended was pingie.com which allowed you to enter in an RSS feed and would send  a real time notification every time a web site added a new post.  I first wrote about Pingie back in 2008 at Geardiary. Since then I used this to track some of the bigger sites like Techmeme.com to provide immediate alert via email when new stories were being written across many blogs.  Unfortunately it appears that Pingie has met its demise – at least for now. Notices posted in November 2009 on the site indicate that due to database troubles (aka – no backup?) the site was forced to shutdown and “all user data has been purged”.

Someone just forwarded to me the specifics of the Microsoft discount promotions. Under the specific terms of this promotion qualified purchasers of Microsoft accounting packages can receive up to 75% in combined credits rebates. Part of that rebate (25%) is paid directly to the consultant selling the software and may only be used as implementation costs (up to a maximum of $25,000).
