public librariesI don't quite know what this tag will do--it was on the Technorati home page, saying "See your posts here. To contribute to this page, include this code in your blog post:" Now it doesn't seem to work. Oh well, I tried.
I have not been very happy with my searches in Technorati--searching by tags seems too open to interpretation. When I tried Lakeside and California, I got LOTS of hits about speeding tickets!
I didn't find a way to really understand "authority" in Technorati. The number of blogs that link to another blog seems to be a key component. However, the fact that my "home" blog appears on some other bloggers' blogrolls does not add to it's importance in my mind...
I found it more interesting/useful to look at Statscounter, which I discovered via Rule the Web, which I subscribed to via RSS after reading about it here. Or maybe it was by email? In any case, I think Technorati is probably more important for people working in journalism, advertising, entertainment, etc. I don't think libraryland is as concerned about how many read and link to how many.
