I really enjoyed learning about del.icio.us. I think it could be very helpful as I sometimes want to show someone a site that I have bookmarked on my computer, but don't know the web address. Just the other day I wanted to show my mother-in-law a website I had found, but was at her house and couldn't remember the site. I tried searching for it, but to no avail. Now I can start tagging things in del.icio.us and never have that problem again.
Technorati was also fun to explore. I didn't know there was a place on the web dedicated to searching just blogs. However, I did know that one of my friends has several blogs, but I was only privy to one. By searching her screen name for the blog that I read, I found one of her other blogs on a different blogging site. Nothing juicy to find in her other blog. In fact, it was pretty much the same stuff she writes in the one I read. I'm pretty sure I already have access to the juicy blog and the one I found by searching her screen name is her more tame version for family. Of the 51 million blogs currently being tracked by technorati, I can't help but wonder how many of them are being written by the same person. I have two blogs -- one for 23 Things and one for friends. Clearly my friend has at least two blogs. While there are 51 million blogs, I'm guessing there are only 17 million bloggers.
