Technorati Trivia

It looks as if my Technorati thing is sort of working. The link in the previous post is not the magic. The magic is in the tags that I have to add to the posts so that the Technorati spider can find them and add them to its index. Then, when someone else searches for that topic they will find a link to my blog entry. The snag is that I think I'm going to have problems here, because there is no way I can get the tag into my post body. The tag must have a particular form for the spider to pick it up:

<a href="http://technorati.com/tag/[spokemagic]" rel="tag">[spokemagic]</a>

Hmmm. I'll see if I can find this later....

Doesn't it pick posts up without the tag if you use the ping form? (I haven't checked, that was just the impression I had from going through the signup process...)
