What kind of ping?

Do you mean...

  1. Pinging an update server to say, "Look, my blog on spreadfirefox.com has been updated!"
  2. Pinging other blogs from this one: "My SFX blog has a post about your blog entry."
  3. Pinging this blog from another: "Such-and-such blog has a post about this SFX blog entry."

#1 should work fine. Just paste your SFX blog URL into the form on Pingomatic.

#2 used to work via Trackback, but has been disabled for a long time.  The last trackback I noticed from SFX was in 2004.

I don't think #3 has ever been available on SFX.

We should add trackbacks to SFx again. They would add functionality.

I would welcome that, but I think there would be more spammers than real pingbacks / trackbacks...

Drupal, the framework of spreadfirefox.com has the trackback module, but I don't know about pingbacks.
