Technorati is Borked

Well, as of this moment that I am writing this. Borked, means screwed, broken, or not working, or whatever.

Maybe this happens when there is just waaaay too much of those linky love tags that will make one’s Technorati Rank go up as it clogs the site’s server capacity.  Or maybe not.

Me? I better steer clear of this as of now, what if Technorati suddenly thinks about punishing those who do these. Oh, perish the thought.

Here is a screen shot:

Exchange Links? Anyone?

This is just an observation for bloggers who want to exchange links, not about linking or pinging back some of their posts with their current post.

In my other blog, I had one commentor who wrote something like: “I have linked you with my other three blogs and I hope you do the same”. I repeat, this was what the “tone/message” that the blogger has written, though not exactly as I have written. Did I link the blogger? No, I didn’t ask this blogger to link me in the three blogs that s/he has, why would I link the blogs to mine, I don’t even visit the blogs mentioned.

At the beginning of my blogging “career”, I found it necessary to ask for other bloggers if they care to exchange links with them. What did I do? Most of them, I emailed, asking for this favor. I wanted to have virtual friends and I did. I was right in choosing these bloggers for until now, we still get in touch. Some of them became good, albeit, virtual friends who later on, became my buddies. Some blogs that I regularly visit, why, I haven’t asked them to exchange links with me, even if I have them in my links and even in my Google Reader.

Anyway, I digress, I am yapping too much here.

The gist of my topic is just this: I read in a friend’s blog, a comment like this:

i don’t see my name here. did we ever xlinks?

What the…?

What say you, huh?

HTML Tutorial for Kids. Or Not Kids.

There is a site for HTML tutorial for kids. Yes, its that modern already.

But take note, this site is also helpful for those who are not familiar with these technology terminologies that seem to talk in codes and well, still more codes.

You think being a blogger makes one adept with the technological terms that abound the www?

So what is .htaccess files or installing perl scripts or MySql database all about? Great, I am scratching my head here and would not be able to understand these, much to the chagrin of my hubby who can talk about these for hours but I would still end up staring blankly ahead 😉

Ok, here is the site: Lissa Explains

Do check it out. I know I will 😀
