So I signed up for Technorati account and “claimed” my blog. I looked at the widgets, but didn’t think there was much point in embedding something that shows how many blogs are linking to mine, considering that this is the message I see in WordPress: “This dashboard widget queries Google Blog Search so that when another blog links to your site it will show up here. It has found no incoming links… yet. It’s okay — there is no rush.” I like how comforting they are.

I am very wary of discovering new blogs to subscribe to since they already suck up a significant amount of time, so I tried not to look too closely. I did, however, find myself following a link to the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince trailer. Technorati is a nice site, but it makes me feel a little info overload anxiety!
