THING #14

Using Technorati is a way to use tags to help find blogs on certain subjects, topics and issues. It is a way to see what individuals and experts have to say. If you want to find out about what others have to say on a topic or issue this is a way to search for blogs, posts about subjects you want to research or discuss with others. It is a way to bounce ideas off of a large group without actually being with them. It gives you ideas to use. It seems that looking using these different methods gives you a variety of posts. The tags seem to be a more efficent method on first glance. I did not have success with the key word search suggested, but I tried one of my own. The link "popular blog searches and tags" was not available; however, I did look at top 100 blog searches in a couple of topics and can see how this would lead to blogs on topics of interest.
