We see that Technorati shows the description for "Privacy when Computers Forget!" but uses the link for "Tin Foil Hat Cure for Mind Control?".

This seems to be a recent upgrade!

Trackback and Technorati; Good ideas gone bad

Trackbacks seem to be broken thank god for Technorati and Y! tells us how lucky we are because Technorati is the only decent source to tell us who has linked to our blogs. I disgree. Technorati has too many blogs it doesn't track at all, or update for almost a year. Also in the past couple days they are showing the wrong posts. There are two problems with trackbacks. First they scream, SPAM ME. Second they are depending on special programming on both ends! The real answer has been with you since the begining, your server log files. These will tell you with who is referring to your website. If you are worried about referral spam, just read the referring page and see if your link is on it. You need to do that with trackbacks anyway. Tags: trackbacks • technorati • 1 Comments. - Permalink

The sneaky nofollow tag By Wilbur Corncob at 05/02/07 14:08 Many people use the nofollow tag in the a href tag to in hopes of linking to a site without giving out search engine "juice". This concept of course distorts the web as it is an option to "link" without "linking". My view is that it is a bad idea for any purpose. It is a lazy mans way to avoid "comment" spam and is completely ineffective as well. Many use a firefox plug in that highlights link anchor text when it has the nofollow tag attached. That means seeing the nofollow links easy when surfing. Just surf and you see them. You can tell who is trying to game the system with nofollow. But some are sneaker. They use a silent all inclusive nofollow tag for the enter web page rather than individual links and the firefox plugin doesn't highlight anything. Now, I can't stand Technorati, but they get a regular link as I don't do nofollows this blog. Now if you examine the links there they are are normal. Nope, to the contrary they all are nofollowed. Technorati sneaks in a global nofollow for all links on the page: Tags: technorati • nofollow • 0 Comments. - Permalink technorati Archives: • May, 2007 • 0
