Technorati turns 3 and launches re-design

July 25th, 2006 Zeid Nasser (Admin)

For those of you who don’t know it- where have you been for the last three years- Technorati has today unveiled a new look. The re-design is more ‘user focused’ highlighting top blog posts and more featured bloggers.

Describing exactly what Technorati does is as difficult as defining the revolution that drives it: blogging.

But here’s our quick definition:
Technorati aggregates blog posts from over 50 million blogs (and increasing everyday), creating a one-stop website where you can search a topic or ‘tag’ and see what everyone’s saying about it, with every search result linking to the blog source.

You will notice that below every post on AdBlogArabia, we’ve got a green set of links which are Technorati Tags. These basically tell Technorati under which Tag terms to archive our post link.

Simple, isn’t it? Yet, Arab bloggers need to get more connected to Technorati, and therefore use it as a bridge to speak to an international audience.

This also applies to Middle Eastern marketers who must realize the potential of Technorati to get brand-related posts listed on it.

So disappointing is our region’s knowledge of Technorati that most of the Tags we create here for regional company names and products end up being the first ever Technorati listing of that word!

Anyway, get going and visit Technorati.
