Testing Technorati and XML-RPC

Below is a little bit of code that updates technorati once a blog article is posted. Once technorati has been updated then it filters out through to other various websites. The aim is to keep both technorati as well as ping-o-matic updated on a regular basis. Anyhow, going to test it out now. Hope that it works. Technorati Profile
def self.technorati
begin
server = XMLRPC::Client.new("rpc.technorati.com","/rpc/ping",80)
begin
puts result = server.call("weblogUpdates.ping","Beilabs","http://www.beilabs.com")
rescue XMLRPC::FaultException => e
puts "Error: [#{ e.faultCode }] #{ e.faultString }"
end
rescue Exception => e
puts "Error: #{ e.message }"
end
end
begin
server = XMLRPC::Client.new("rpc.technorati.com","/rpc/ping",80)
begin
puts result = server.call("weblogUpdates.ping","Beilabs","http://www.beilabs.com")
rescue XMLRPC::FaultException => e
puts "Error: [#{ e.faultCode }] #{ e.faultString }"
end
rescue Exception => e
puts "Error: #{ e.message }"
end
end
