Dream Awakener

According to the Technorati Blog, today is a significant day in that “not only did comScore rank Technorati Media as the fifth largest social media property” but they re-launched a wholly new Technorati.com

One of the changes they made was in the area of the authority of a blog. The technorati blog says, “In the past, we based Technorati Authority on six months of blogosphere data. Because most searches are looking for items less than a month old, we’re going to narrow that window in a similar way. In the past, because the data window was so long, Authority and the Top 100 lists it powered were relatively static. With the new algorithm, the resulting Authority will better reflect the fast-changing nature of the blogosphere. Its new inherent volatility will also show which blogs are rising and falling in authority, rewarding authors on posting frequency, context and linking behavior, as well as other data inputs.

We are also excited to announce Topical Authority. As opposed to overall Technorati Authority, Topical Authority is limited to a specific category. Some blogs may rank in more than one category.” This blog is in the topic of life and religion and as of this posting was ranked #37. Thanks for making this blog a success!
