Technorati is the "leading search tool and authority for blogs", with more than 50 million blogs attached to it. This is an incredible number of blogs! With the world population at 6,602,224,175 (July 2007, CIA World Factbook), that means one out of 132 people has a blog! No wonder we need a way of searching blogs, apart from the usual internet search engines. Mind you, I don't really believe these statistics - I think that some people have more than one blog, which inflates the stats. Because I have set up my Ifancynancypearl blog through www.blogger.com, my blog is also accessible through Technorati.
Would I use Technorati? Probably not at the moment but who knows what the future may hold? I'm not sure how it could be applied in a professional sense. However, I feel it is important to know about such things if only to avoid being a technoramus.
