What is pingback?

A service that automatically notifies the person responsible for a site each time a link has been created to a person's blog post from an external website. It is an application similar to Trackback, with the difference that in this instance it is based on an automated protocol, that saves users the extra effort involved in searching and editing each time there is an update.
