technorati

Step 14 in the Learning 2.0 is about Technorati
this is a search site that tracks blogs. You can use it to search keywords,whole blogs that have tags and registered blogs about a specific subject. If you have certain interests and want to see what people are saying you can use this tool to find blog posts about it. Or you can search for what is popular by using it's home page links. They seem to be having problems today as several things I tried to search for came up with a problem page. (it said technorati was being 'borked')I tried to find a section described in the information on Learning 2.0 called Discovery, as it was supposed to have a subcategory for books, but I could not find it or the problems Technorati seems to be having today prevented it being viable. I will try again tomorrow. I do not think I will tag my posts for searching by Technorati.
