The brand-spankin'-new Austinbloggers.org, which I mentioned in class today, went up in the last week or so. It uses MT's TrackBack functionality to aggregate posts that ping a particular URL. The idea is to provide a one-stop-shop for Austin-related blog posts. Previous iterations of this project required users to post unique entries to an Austin blog, so this allows Austin-related blogging with no duplication of effort. MT allows you to set your categories to automatically ping a site when you post in a particular category, so, on my blog, when I post to the "Austin" category, it automatically posts a teaser on this site.
