#14 Technorati

Searching 'Learning 2.0' in Technorati in keyword, tags and directory searching produced a mixed serve of results. Tags seemed to produce a more reasonable number of results. I also tried some more vague and obscure music searches and also found Tags to be more on the mark, often producing just a handful of desirable results. The keyword searching facility seems a bit 'troubled' and needs some work(or is it just me? ie phrase searching, boolean)The authority feature is a good idea in tag and directory searching. Interesting to look at the popular searches, particularly in regards to the upcoming US elections and the concerns and opinions of the US public. Good to see Boingboing is maintaining it's popularity as its always been fun and interesting.
