New Referer System - javascript and perl cgi to the rescue
Jon Udell says:
Stephen Downes' referral system. I'm experimenting (at the bottom of this page) with a referral system kindly offered by Stephen Downes. As Stephen points out, if you'd prefer not to send him your referral data, you can host his backend script yourself, for reasons of privacy or guaranteed reliability. ... [Jon's Radio]
This system appears to have the same benefits that the RESTful SOAP approach has; that is, it's available anywhere to anybody. This one takes it a step further since it's not dependent on Radio or the Radio Community Server. I'll have to give it a try. Nice work Stephen!
