Technorati

I've included some preset text for each new post. It's for Technorati, which is like a search engine for Blogs. According to my site stats, it has actually driven a lot of traffic to my blog. So, I encourage the rest of you to use it.

In order to use the service, you have to add Tags that correspond to the topic of the entry. Its not very hard. Here is what the preset text looks like (As a warning, for the text to appear, I had to change the angle brackets into regular brackets):

[a href="http://technorati.com/tag/CHANGE+TOPIC" rel="tag"]CHANGE TOPIC[/a]

So you see that "CHANGE+TOPIC" is different than "CHANGE TOPIC". The left is the hyperlink and right is what you want to appear. In the hyperlinks, multiple words have to be connected by a "+". Here are two examples:

Penn State
[a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Penn+State" rel="tag"]Penn State[/a]

PSU
[a href="http://technorati.com/tag/PSU" rel="tag"]PSU[/a]

Let me know if you have any questions.
