R.I.P. Technorati? August 17, 2007

Since the beginning of the blogging era Technorati has been among the best (if not THE BEST) blog search tools.

In recent months Technorati has changed its site and become increasingly irrelevant.

I had hopes that it would turn things around..but that now seems very unlikely.

You see David Sifry – the founding visionary of Technorati has left the building, quit, gonzo – outta here.

Without Sifry at the helm Technorati is a listless ship and one that will continue drifting in obscurity. It’s a sad day indeed. There is nothing wrong with Google’s blog search, i like it alot. But having Technorati as an independent and viable blog search tool was great to have.

Technorati is still alive – apparently – but it’s a shell of its former self.
