I would love to see technorati filter these out. Too many splogs are popping up, making use of other bloggers’ rss feeds to populate their sites. I would love to see technorati filter these out.

I do wonder how they choose the blogs on their front page though. it would be nice to see some 'other' blogs - not the usual big name peeps.

But I guess they stand more chance of getting some advertising deal out of direct links to media companies? Thanks for the latest news Darren all the same.

I'm happy they are going back to their core-competency and getting back to their blogging roots. I've rooted for Technorati for a long time (despite all their problems), and look forward to any new tools they might develop for us bloggers. I for one am glad Technorati is making this move.

Sometimes it takes several days for an incoming link to my blog to register, and sometimes a link never registers at all (despite the fact that the linking blog or site is claimed). The Technorati monster seems to get out a lot, and lately I've gone to my user page only to find that all my blogs have disappeared. I wish they'd focus on their existing functionality before doing a re-launch. -Melissa Donovan <a href="http://www.writingforward.com" rel="nofollow">Writing FORWARD</a> I like Technorati and visit it daily but I find that they have a lot of glitches and bugs.

Can't say that the failure to link more directly to the blog early on pleases me. Not exactly user friendly, and if they have a thing about giving links there's always 'nofollow'. Think of the users, Technorati. Making people click all around your site is not making it better for them. People want to be able to reach the story they're seeing with a click. But good to see them rethinking how they function. Time for me to go back and look them over again. It's been a while. Nice to see some changes.
