DemoGirl Attempts To Clear Up The Technorati Confusion
Written by Allen Stern - December 5, 2007
Yesterday we discussed the new version of Technorati and I concluded that I was confused by the new features. Even created a nifty video to demonstrate my confusion. Today my buddy Molly (aka DemoGirl) has created a demo of the new Technorati and also attempts to help clear up my confusion. It's the first time I've ever heard her say "I think" as is she isn't sure either!
No idea if the Technorati team had anyone externally test and review the new version but it certainly doesn't appear that way. Dorion/Richard, any input here on how you developed the new version?
One of the questions I had was around the section on the right called "Contributing bloggers". I wondered how those blogs got listed. Molly thinks it's random - which I don't agree with after seeing "Fergie's Tech Blog" listed on there every time I visit the page since launch.
Check out Molly's video - it's a better demo than mine and explains the updates pretty well.

Well, I'm not really sure if I cleared anything up but I think I understand it a little better after spending so much time on the site. Most people won't do that though, will they?
Nope, they sure won't. It's apparent what Richard's goals are, I wish he would give me an interview so I could confirm :)
Molly's video provided some clarity. Still, having to look at a third party's video speaks volumes about technorati's product.
