Automatic Updates For Private And Commercial Themes?

I am trying to create a notification system for my theme that will talk to my server via a simple api that simply lets people know when there is a new update. How would I create the api and incorporate it into my theme?

Answer 1

There's a few options out there:

1. Jeremy Clark's Theme/Plugin Update Notifier
2. OR WP-Updates which is... pretty freakin sweet IMHO

Thanks!
