The New Technorati

Back in March I mentioned the blog search engine Technorati, which had just hit the one billion mark of links tracked. Well, Technorati has been coming along quite well in its evolution and they just launched their new website today (it was in beta for the last few weeks). The new design looks great and the features and functionality have improved quite a bit. To celebrate these changes, Technorati is having a party on Wednesday, June 22nd at The House of Shields in San Francisco. So come on out if you want to find out more about Technorati, what they have planned for the future, how they use tags or even if you want to pick up some of their cool new stickers.

Speaking of tags, Technorati’s head engineer Kevin Marks and Stewart Butterfield, co-founder of the photo sharing website Flickr, recently launched Tag Tuesday, a monthly event where developers can get together to discuss the implementation of tags in various online resources and software. Here are my photos from the first Tag Tuesday which took place last week in San Francisco.
