Leveraging weblogging, Trackback, XML/RPC

Some random thoughts of mine.

Many people are getting used to communicating via weblogs, so a system
where they store their own outgoing mails and send notifications may not
seem so alien to them.

There's a system built on top of XML/RPC (or SOAP, can't remember which,
and not an expert in these things) called "Trackback", which is used at
the moment for notifying a web server that someone has linked /
commented on a blog entry. Could this be leveraged to provide
notifications for an IM2000 style system?
