Technorati a.k.a. what a lot of blogs!

Just had a look on http://www.technorati.com/ for "Learning 2.0" references.
Firstly I went to the advanced search option, chose to look in blogs and looked for the whole phrase, which I put in speech marks. (You may not have to for the phrase option, but I find it a very useful search habit for sites like Google when I only want hits on a specific phrase.) Only 6 results came up - surprisingly few. I then searched for "Learning 2.0" in the tags box and got 183 hits - now that's more like it! And finally I looked for it in the URL box (even though you're really meant to put a URL in there rather than a phrase), and got 262 hits. Jackpot.

Next it was on to http://www.technorati.com/pop/ to see what's popular.
Apparently Jenifer Garner and Ben Affleck are (both made it into the top 15 searches). The most popular blog (as rated by fans) is http://www.boingboing.net/ - which mostly looks at pop culture and technology related issues. The top movie at the moment is "Dark Knight" and the top news story relates to the Olympics.
