So I just now actually fully read the blog post and it covers all the scenarios I can think of for doing this sort of thing. Webhooks as filters are not greatly utilized. I'm using DrEval to add filtering/processing to Notify.io. HookPress exposes WP filters this way too. That's about it.
I think you're on to something, and it would help promote the idea of using webhooks in this way: PubSubHubbub should support processing webhooks in the hub, as you propose. -jeff On Mon, Jan 11, 2010 at 11:20 AM, Ivan Žužak <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey Jeff, > > Thanks!
