Media Orchard Fixes Technorati
In Month 1 of Operation OSSTE (Obnoxious, Self-Serving Technorati Experiment), the following linkers were picked up by Technorati:
Susan Getgood
Bill Green
Brian Clark
Luke Armour
Antony Mayfield
Sherrilynne Starkie
Nick Douglas
Steve Field
Which, as far as we can tell from referrals, represents 100 percent of those who linked to us. (If you linked to us and are not referenced above, let us know and we'll amend our findings.)
After all our indignant complaining, some might think that this perfect performance by Technorati might make us look like a complete jackass.
We prefer to believe that our belly-aching spurred Technorati's panicked engineering team to work through the night to solve its link-recognition problems. They know an eight-pound gorilla when they see one.
We'll be back at the end of June for Month 2.
Update: Uh-oh. We're hearing rumblings that at least two other blogs linked, pinged, but are not on the Technorati big board. As Drudge would say, "Developing..."

Scott, if you keep publishing your list of ought-to-be-linked, how will you know if the T'Rati engineers aren't manually adding them, like monkeys in a steno pool?
(If that's true, then start publishing a bigger list. You'll be numero-uno in no time.)

Wow, you must have REALLY fixed Technorati. I received twelve posts in my feedreader today from Technorati search subscriptions - all old, but your push must have unclogged somethin'
