Week 6 Thing #14

From what I can gather, a blog post is an entry made by the blog author. A tag is how you identify the information on your blog so that it can be ready identified by a search and included in places like Technocrati. A blog directory is available on blogs that are so large you need to search in them to find information. If your blog is included in Technocrati, it will "ping". The number one blog was Boing Boing and when I searched for "School Library Learning 2.0" I didn't get any hits. I did get 1,275 hits when I searched in Technocrati but most of the hits were people who are blogging about this class... It is unbelievable to me that there are 175,000 new blogs every day which will make Technocrati even more popular.
