How do I check if my pingback was successful?

I am currently writing ping-back code on a blogging platform. Pingbacks work on localhost, but I want to check if they work when pinged by a third party service. Is there any website or some other solution that will show me as soon as it gets a response from me?

Thank.

You can create a blog account with a free blogging service (like blogger.com ) and test the pingback implementation.

Both http://www.typepad.com/ and http://wordpress.com/ support pingbacks and can be used for free.

The Wordpress blog has a "pingbacktest" that accepts pingbacks:

http://pingbacktest.wordpress.com/2008/01/15/hello-world/

If you pingback with some url that links to it, you get

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<methodResponse>
  <params>
    <param>
      <value>
      <string>Pingback from http://foo to http://pingbacktest.wordpress.com/2008/01/15/hello-world/ registered. Keep the web talking! :-)</string>
      </value>
    </param>
  </params>
</methodResponse>
