I'm lazy, so I made a trackback search tool.

Tonight I was really bored at work so I decided to write an online tool that will find all posts that support trackbacks based on a keyword or phrase. I tested the tool with “Michael Jackson” and it returned a bunch of results. The cool thing is all you have to do is remove the links you don’t want and copy/paste the rest right into your blog article. Wordpress will automatically send pingbacks to those articles and you could possible get an inbound link out of it.

Basically the script searches various blog search engines using their RSS feeds, and then the script checks the page for the trackback code. If I my script finds the trackback code it adds the URL to the output buffer returning HTML that can easily be copied and pasted into a blog post. Wordpress then does it’s pingbacks.

Check it out here.
