G'day Eddie

If you'd like a hand updating the list I'll be happy to help you in the near future. I'm currently blocked out till mid August, so what say we schedule a date in then, divide the work by two and go through the entire list then?

Cheers,

CM.

Mark, I'm not going to update the list as it is a full time job to keep the list up to date. I may however publish an updated list in the future.

My blog @ http://www.itexpertscentral... has Technorati Authority of 18 and agreggated by OraNA.info but it's not in the list. Are you going to update the list?

Dimitri, it's about time. An authority of 27 is not bad at all. Keep up the good blogging and the links flowing (and the authority growing).

Andy, I got the list of all the Oracle bloggers aggregated by OraNA.info, imported it into Google spreadsheet, queried the Technorati authority and rank for each bog, sorted and published the result here using the embed feature of Google spreadsheet.

Stupid question alert: Eddie, how did you create that spreadsheet? I'm asking because I would like to see the same information for SQL Server bloggers.

I already requested to include http://www.itexpertscentral.... Please let met know if it's already added to the aggregator.

I don't really know what the old Technorati system was and don't precisely understand how the new system differs or whether it is better.

However, if it results in placing my humble blog at joint 20th in this illustrious company, then my life is complete :-)

Almost.

Not a surprise as to who's top but would have expected JLewis to be a close second.

Some surprises there as I would have thought there are others who should be higher but then I realize that my scope in reading blogs is limited to Oracle Tech Stack but not to their programming tech.

Steven, I think you're right. a great example of a missing "authority" (as of today) is Dimitri's blog. I have found the following three FAQs helpful in understanding how Technorati indexing works:

Links from other blogs not showing up in search?

</li>
<li>

My posts are not indexed and my post tags aren't either. What can I do?

</li>
<li>

How do I get indexed? or better indexed?

</li>
</ul>

Thanks for your encouragement and I'm glad that you find interesting or fun things to read here :)

Interesting list, Eddie. Thanks for compiling it. I think that there are a large number of blogs that don't register with Technorati, which means that any indices driven by their statistics may understate real "authority" (whatever that means).

Nonetheless, keep up the good work. Always something interesting or fun to read here.

Regards,
Steven Chan, Oracle

Dimitri, I was also surprised why Technorati has not assigned an "authority" to your excellent blog.

How does one get his/her blog added to the OraNA collective?
