Week 6

#14: Technorati

Technorati is a great tool. It searches for many different things with one keyword. I searched for Learning 2.0 and returned several results in Posts. Different questions that are asked can be answered by anyone who spots them in this search engine. Blogs return a different search. It will return anything that relates to a '2.0' of anything, such as Engineering. But it does return results for Library Learning 2.0...you just have to search for it to find it.

Technorati has already put aside some popular searches with tags on the homepage. Click on one of these words and you are taken to another site with all related links to that particular wording. Take for instance, Harry Potter since I'm a Harry Potter fan. This is one of the popular links that Technorati has on the homepage. Click on that link and you are taken to many photos, blogs, and clips/videos about the movie. It's rather a great way to explore the Internet from one site.

Wow, you're tooling right along through the program. Good comments, too.

I hope you don't mind, I've used your blog with some staff members as an example of one that's well formatted, easy to read, and easy to track.

With over 250 blogs to read through, your devoted project liaisons appreciate that a lot!!!!!
