I expect that many of you posties are scrambling to add the ITK (PPP tools) to your blog with the rollout of RealRank.  I know that I started scrambling when I realized that I messed up my PPP tools when I participated in the Argus stats beta.

While posties can't fix all the problems that can occur with adding the ITK, no one should feel that they don't have the technical support needed to add ITK to their blogs.  There are a ton of very skilled posties on the PayPerPost message board that are more than happy to help.  In fact, I'm happy to offer my services to those that are experiencing technical difficulties.  I'd leave you my email, but I have enough spam.  Feel free to leave a comment on my blog(thank you akismet for filtering my comment spam) and I'll see what I can do to help you.  Just remember that it is Thanksgiving weekend and I'm only one person.  So, try the board first where all the posties can help when they have time, but I'll do what I can to help you out too.

Of course, I'm referring to people who don't have the technical skill to add the ITK tools.  If you're experiencing a problem with the ITK once it's properly installed, then contact support.  I'm pretty sure that Pete will be watching that bug queue pretty closely.

Also, if you are still using LiveJournal, myspace or other platforms that kind of look like blogs (excuse my personal bias) but don't support the ITK then many posties can help you make the switch to a better blogging platform.  I know that Wordpress has a ton of import features available so you can move your blog onto the Wordpress and I'm sure that Typepad and Blogger have similar features too.

Basically, don't ever feel like you're alone in dealing with problems with your blog.  You have a thriving postie community around you to help.
