Start digging, Technorati is dead. I'm sure, like the old man in Spamalot, Technorati is protesting that "I'm not dead yet." But trust me, the corpse is quickly reaching room temperature. Bring out your dead.
I rarely get any traffic from Technorati anymore. It's been weeks since any traffic was referred to THINKing from Technorati. Do you get any traffic from them? Do you gain any value at all from Technorati?
Many bloggers agree with me that it's time for Technorati to turn off the servers and the lights. Once they descended into the pit by accepting spammy ads, Technorati was dead to a lot of people.
The final straw for me was when they turned off the WTF function. This was the last in a long line of missteps by Technorati. It was useful for a time, but it's time has passed. So, what's next?
