Found a link from Technorati: Top 50 Interesting Recent Blogs with Context in my referrers, went to check out the page, and saw a lot of unfamiliar listings with similarly formed titles. On a hunch, I started mousing over and sure enough most of them were LiveJournal blogs.
Is Technorati manually mining LJ or have LJ blogs started pinging?
LiveJournal pinging weblogs.com?

Yup! It’s something for paid users I believe. They just turned on the capability a few weeks ago. Luckily it’s off by default or weblogs.com would be flooded.
Gregory is right. Here’s the announcement at LJ:

I also noticed that pitas.com is pinging now as well, but I only see them at blo.gs and not weblogs.com. Perhaps weblogs.com is not accepting their pings.
