[OGDev] Ping Pingerati or GeoURL

Hi All

Using the new Wiki::Toolkit::Plugin::Ping, I've added a new config option 
to openguides. If you set the option "ping_services" to be one (or both) 
of "pingerati" or "geourl", then it'll configure and register the ping 
plugin for these ping services.

When you write a node, the configured services will then be ping'd to let 
them know of the update.

If you don't have a "ping_services" option, or if it's blank, there will 
be no change for the current behaviour of openguides.


Currently, only pingerati and geourl are supported. I can't think of a 
good way to specify the urls in the config file, so openguides will accept 
any service defined in known_services of Wiki::Toolkit::Plugin::Ping . So, 
if you can think of more things you might like to ping, we'll add them in 
there, and then you can use them.

If you want to play, you'll need Wiki::Toolkit::Plugin::Ping from the 
Wiki::Toolkit svn, and the latest OpenGuides from svn.
