Week 6, Thing #14: Technorati

The leading Web 2.0 tool for blog-searching, Technorati currently tracks approximately 62.5 million blogs. If following blogs is your primary interest, then clearly Technorati is the way to go. It appears to be sufficiently user-friendly.

I decided to go ahead and "claim" my SummerLearner 2007 blog with Technorati, thereby creating my profile and officially adding my blog to the site. Here is my profile page:
http://www.technorati.com/people/technorati/sher51


A brief note about the term "Ping": When a blogger updates her blog, she can click on Ping to alert Technorati to the fact that the blog has been updated.
