Thing 14

Talk about an information revolution - when this program was created in mid 2006 there were (according to the podcast accompanying this lesson something over 55 million blogs) when I looked at the Technorati site just now they are monitoring over 63.2 million and there are even more (including this one) that are not "claimed" and are not monitored. Everyone has something to say about something even if nobody else cares!!!

Technorati provides a way to search all of this and is therefore a useful thing. Combined with Delicous (can't remember just now where the dots go) this provides more ways to find and organize information. In doing this exercise I found two great YouTube presentations that I tagged and saved. Can't wait for the YouTube lesson.

Hi Louisa,

I look forward to seeing which videos you noticed at YouTube.

Have you seen the Technorati widget? Once you've claimed your blog there, their search widget makes it so much easier to search one's own blog archives than I've ever managed with Blogger's search.

I am tracking my own 23 Things journey at my moonflowerdragon blog.
