Browsing Technorati

After looking around in Technorati, IMO anyway it is at least more user friendly in its interface than many tagging, searching and blog related sites. Aside from the advanced search feature, the ability to adjust your search from tags to blogs is quite helpful when trying to broaden or narrow how you want to search for a certain topic in the web 2.0 type environment. The popular search function in Technorati in all honesty did not surprise me too much as some of the more popular technology related terms and items were listed from learning 2.0 to web 2.0 to iphone and facebook. I was a little surprised though that there were not more personal names on the list like movie stars or politicians. The only "names" listed that I could see in top search were Andrea Rincon and Al Gore. That's just a few of my initial 2 cents from browsing through Technorati.
