Technorati

So many of these things are fun and exciting as I start to play, then I hit a snag and get frustrated. I was having a good old time in technorati, claiming my blog (I figured out that one), then setting some favorites. I picked a couple of blogs by teen authors I like (Meg Cabot and Mitali Perkins), then tried to find blogs for Chris Crutcher and Sarah Dessen (no luck, but I bet they have them), and added some general library blogs. So far, so good. Then I tried to do the learning 2.0 exercise by searching for learning 2.0 in two ways. I can't do it, because for some reason I still get the old Technorati homepage, which only allows one kind of search (no blog directory). Anyway, I can see the value of Technorati, even if I didn't get to explore all of the features and I can see how enormous the blogosphere is --but I think I'll have to look a little more to find blogs about some of the things I'm most interested in.
