Week 6, Thing 14 - Technorati

The is the simplest way I can describe Technorati is it is a search engine for blogs. You can either search by keyword or by choosing a tag from the tag cloud on the home page. Either way you choose to search you will get results in posts, blogs, videos, photos, music and events. I chose to search for "learning 2.0". The results were surprising. In Posts, the results had nothing to do with learning 2.0. In Quick View, a couple of blogs related to our 23 things were found. I can see how people who blog might not want to use Google but use Technorati instead because of its search features. I would suggest taking a look at Technorati and finding out for yourself if it would be helpful or not.
