I had lunch with Tantek and Ryan of Technorati yesterday (Niall forgot, and ate early; photos of his gnat-eating plants forthcoming). We mainly discussed microformats, continuing a discussion we were having over on my personal site: Fussing about formats, Microformats love vCards -- more on this later, although I've done my bit and filed the hCalendar feature request already.
So, I'm over here thinking I should probably claim my Bryght blog: Technorati Profile
It's kind of a pain to claim weblogs in a multi-user system like Drupal. I haven't looked, but are group blogs handled in some way by Technorati? That's essentially what the blogs page here on Bryght.com is -- the combination of all our local posts. Well, like many other services (yes, like Flickr and del.icio.us -- we are doing this, DKR), I suppose a Technorati module is called for. Plugging in all of these external web services should work the same way: enter in the username and password of the remote service and voila! -- your remote "stuff" is integrated locally. In Technorati's case that would start by auto-claiming your blog, and perhaps allowing you to enable a block with your Technorati profile automatically.
And then of course we've got the front page feed -- some of them are more press release-y stuff (we're using Drupal "story" nodes) but some are just blog posts or event calendar postings. Never mind the feed per category. Should we claim all of those? This multi-user, multi-feed, multi-data stuff gets complicated :P
P.S. This is now in an RSS 2.0 feed. I'm hoping that Technorati reads <category> fields auto-magically.
