Technorati - ho hum

I was not as excited about Technorati as I have been about the other Web 2.0 lessons. First, the video link did not work and then the activities were kind of boring. When I was doing the activities I noticed that the most popular were either celebrity gossip or tech/gadget blogs, with news blogs following way behind in third. I was also surprised when I looked at the number of people who are subscribed to the blogs, that there were only a handful that had really high subscriber numbers. With how many billion (I forget) blogs out there that Technorati keeps track of, not that many people subscribe to them. So, it looks like there are a lot of people out there with tons to say and nobody is reading, or at least very few.
So, Technorati was just ho hum for me, nice to know what it is if someone ever talks about it but will I use it? No!
