Thing #16: Technorati

I’ve decided that I like technology that makes my life easier, but I’m not a fan of anything that involves me spending more time on a computer than I have to. While some people might put Technorati in the first category, I would definitely put it in the second. Sure it can help me find blog posts on particular topics faster, but why would I be looking for these posts in the first place? I don’t need more blogs to read. I have plenty to keep me busy as it is. Sure, I might miss out on a really great post, but I’m ok with that. I had to accept long ago that I can’t read everything in this world. And, if I’m going to be reading, I’d much rather be reading a book. Technorati might be useful once in a while, but it’s definitely not a resource that I’ll be using very often.
