#14 Exploring Technorati

Technorati was fun, but much too extensive for my taste. True, the blog searches, tag searches, and post searches, were all different, but I felt that the tag searches were the most comprehensive. 'Tagging' brings back posts and blogs in the results. People seem to be good at tagging like bits of information and sharing the information, making Technorati a good resource for journalists and researchers. I had talked to many coworkers about Technorati beforehand, so i was not surprised by all this. One point is clear, however. There are too many different ways to search here, and all the mechanics are best done behind the scenes. Tagging is good, but I like search engines that incorporate tagging automatically like Google.
