Google Authority

Google Blog Search Surpasses Technorati

Technorati is a tool I’ve used for over three years, but Google is a much better friend. I see referrals in my logs everyday from Technorati search, but a post of mine will only hang in the top 10 for an hour or so. On Google Blog search I’ll stay in the top 10 for up to three days and after two days I’ll be near the top on the main Google Search

When Technorati and Edelman made their big announcement about blogs around the world I noticed they completely missed the big audience my blog has in Switzerland, Italy and the Czech Republic.

Google grants me authority on the subject of technology and aggregates my posts on the pages of Google Financial. I’m the Rodney Dangerfield of Technorati in getting no respect.

Send Me a Mac

Now Microsoft Wants Its Laptop Back

Yesterdays breaking news was not the rotten Apple stock scandal it was the free Vista laptops sent out to a bunch of bloggers who could only managed to write about the box opening experience and the color of the laptop. Not one word was published or posted about the Windows Vista OS, not one.

Looking at the blogs rewarded with a laptop I didn’t see one blogging on ASP.Net software and not a single Windows Vista beta tester among them. 

Edelman is becoming synonymous with scandal, doesn't the Windows Vista Team, AMD and Acer read and subscribe to blogs?  Edelman PR is too involved with Technorati and they don’t favor blogs on ASP.Net.

For every action there is a reaction and that's what we're going to read about today – another day without a word about the Windows Vista OS.

If any of you know Steve Jobs ask him to send me a Mac and I’ll do what I can to help him out of this rotten Apple stock scandal.
