# 14 Discovering Technorati

I gained some realisations out of my Technorati experience. In a keyword search one can designate searching blogs containg the following options: any authority, a little authority, some authority, a lot of authority. Different search results eventuated when the same search (Learning 2.0) was carried out with the former options. For example, 5,970 results eventuated when some authority was applied to this keyword search. On the other hand, the result changed to 5,198 when a lot of authority altered the search in blog posts.

Additionally, there is a visual representation of the above results in graph format which consolidates its numerical figures.

As opposed to blog posts, there are 830 blogs about Learning 2.0. Interestingly, Technorati records the number of fans a blog has gained. Currently, 2¢ Worth holds 95 fans. Even video & photo results can come up for designated search.

In an equivalent tag search, 967 posts were tagged with Learning 2.0. While no photos came up in a keyword search containing Learning 2.0, the same tag search did produce photos.

Under a directory search, 830 blogs containing Learning 2.0 were recorded. The same results were gained from a keyword search of blogs containinig Learning 2.0.

These are my discoveries!
