Technorati Acquisition Rumor
August 11th, 2005 at 23:09I’ve been adding Technorati tags to my Axodys posts for most of 2005 and it looks like the tag craze is going mainstream nowThe “latest rumor”:http://www.problogger.net/archives/2005/08/12/technorati-sale/ around the blogosphere seems to be that tag portal “Technorati”:http://technorati.com is on the verge of being acquired by a large search engine company. To me and others that pretty much means “Yahoo”:http://yahoo.com or “Google”:http://google.com. I think such a deal would be a winning situation for just about all parties involved. The one complaint about Technorati that most people seem to have is that it’s a fairly slow loading site. Getting some serious search engine engineering brainpower and infrastructure to shore up the backend would have a nice positive impact.
