I note that the link to your own site doesn't have a pingback from this post, either. Is it perhaps pending moderation? That would be one way to determine whether the problem is with you sending pingbacks or that other site receiving pingbacks.

However Andy C's post does link to shegeeks, contrary the message, so perhaps pingback isn't sending the right information? Or perhaps the shegeeks implementation is broken.

Scott> Did you specifically select the "pingback" type from the drop-
down?
No. I am ashamed to say that I foolishly thought 'All' meant 'All'.
Particularly, when the drop-down options are: 'All', 'Comment',
'Pingback' 'Trackback'. So 'Manage Comments' really does do what it
says on the tin. It solely manages comments unless you explicitly
specify otherwise. May I suggest the drop-down displays 'Comments'
rather than 'All.
I am doubly ashamed to admit I never visit the dashboard. Ever. I
actually thought the Admin menu only contained the drop down items
(Options, Plugins etc). I didn't realise it was the epicentre and the
main adminstration interface for a Habari blog.
This was clearly a mishtake and represents a Eureka moment for me for
me because the information ('5 pingbacks awaiting moderation' with
hyperlink) was nicely presented there and would have saved all this
heartache. Also, now I can see those elusive Feedburner stats :-)
PS. I don't know if it's just me and whether I have unusual data but
the dashboard is very, very S L O W for me. So slow, I would probably
get bored and click elsewhere.
My dasboard renders (is that the term ?) in 15-20 seconds.
Consistently. And I don't think I have Giagbytes of spam or garbage
data causing any slow queries. Is this normal ?
Thanks as always. Your time is much appreciated.

It is my opinion that this is a defect. When one selects "all", they should get all. If that screen defaults to comments, it should select "comments" from the drop-down to indicate that.

Groovy.

It's possible that it's bogging down trying to get the list of incoming links from Technorati.
