He says that they're looking into it, so hopefully things will be back to normal soon. I posted a query on the feedmesh mailing list earlier, and got a response from Shane Adams at Yahoo!

The problem here is "phantom" pings: updates showing up on blo.gs when the site in question hasn't actually updated. More pings-per-hour isn’t a problem.

That restriction appears to have been lifted. Up until yesterday, blo.gs used to only allow one ping per blog per hour. That restriction appears to have been lifted.

And he further theorizes that the problem might be Yahoo!'s own RSS ping service. More info, from the original creator of blo.gs: blo.gs is broken

What I mean is that your site might show up on the “Updated recently” list at 5:55 AM and you probaly would be sleeping by then. Your site was no way updated at that time, and It shows it at blo.gs. That’s pretty weird. I’ll try to contact them and ask them what the situtation is because I think I had this problem before. tags: wordpress [...] [...] According to Dougal, Blo.gs is showing fake pings alot of times.

A number of sites on my blogroll that never update have been at the top of the list for the past day or so, but when I look at the blo.gs site the list looks ok. I thought it was just me but maybe there is something up. I think something is up.
