anyone using the Google Ping service

[des]

I've just come across the Google ping service. I realise I can ping manually but was interested in setting it to auto. I read through the FAQ and wondered if anyone here has a plain English, 3 step solution

Or if it's not v useful.

Google already reads pings from the major ping services such as Weblogs.com, whom we notify (aka ping) whenever you make a post to your blog. So pinging Google when you post an article on your BlogHarbor blog is unnecessary. There won't be any negative impact by sending them a ping, but there won't be any benefit in doing so either.
