Hi Tim,

The Holy Cow Dude is a new project at a higher level, it is more like a search engine.

It is based on searching other people's blog content, and it requires to be pinged in order to get your website indexed.

The cool thing about the Cow it's that it has 2 spiders:

1) One which collects feeds links from the people who just pinged it,

and 2) another spider which actually grabs the content.

It is a cool project, many people started to talk about it, and I compare it to Technorati.

We will try to contribute to the XML-RPC development, because this is one of the best way to exchange information on the internet. I feel it's going to be good.

Unlike most of the other blogging related services, we always have a look into the robots.txt files of the target website, and we grab only the ones which allow the HolyCowDude bot to crawl their website.

We were working on the graphics, and on the backend, and of course, there will be a new blog search engine in the market, starting from next month.


I'm starting to like the Cow
