Added: Technorati Tags

September 7th, 2005 ^Lestat Leave a comment Go to comments

I recently added technorati tags to the the entries.

What is it?

It’s kind of like the “Related Material” source in the back of a term paper or book. They are keywords, about the entry you make. These keywords are linked back to technorati.com. If you hit a technorati keyword from beginnercode.com, it will take you to the most recently updated blogs at technorati.com that use those keywords. You can also just go to technorati and poke around some of the most recent keywords used. It’s a pretty cool feature for following particular subjects.

I downloaded a plugin for it from broobles.com. After installing it, all you need to do to make it work is type this code in your entry:

<tags>tag, another tag, and another tag</tags>

technorati, tags, wordpress, plugins

    I use the Technorati bookmarklet. Do you want the code for it? I can post it to SS or somewhere. I like the bookmarklet because I can modify the code to include some internal tagged links. IceRocket doesn’t require that you link to them, they will link anything in the tag format. This way you can link back to your own articles or search results for tags/keywords and still get listed elsewhere. Cool, huh?

    Alrighty, I cooked up a post for you on the Technorati Bookmarklet here, Lestat:
