Short Answer:
Technorati is a search engine focused on tracking blogs
Technorati tracks over 80 million blogs
Searches on Technorati often result in more up-to-date news than Google
Google launched a competitor to Technorati, Google Blog Search
Caution, many of the results on Technorati are spam blogs, also known as "splogs"
Slightly Longer Answer:
- According to their About page, Technorati currently tracks over 80 million blogs. Every time one of those blogs writes something new, they send a ping to Technorati, telling them they've posted something new along with some tags (What are tags?) and basic information about the post. Technorati immediately adds that post to every search for any of those tags.
- Basically, this enables Technorati to search the web, specifically the blogosphere, in real time and makes it an invaluable resource for up-to-the-minute information online.
