Features in the Next Release of Spinn3r

A new release of Spinn3r is around the corner and I wanted to publish a link to documentation of a new feature we're shipping.

We're going to be releasing a new source API which allows our users to obtain the status of a weblog or register a new weblog (or feed) as a source within Spinn3r.

By default, these sources won't be made available to our other users. If more than one of our users registers the same URL we'll then make it a publish source.

This has been a frequent request over the last few months. It should also give us another signal for our spam detection algorithms.
