Since Oct 16, 2007, I have not heard from anyone Technorati Support and I ping Technorati directly! My last eMail to Technorati was sent on Nov 2 as follows: Still having Technorati Troubles with disappearing tags, posts and blog reactions (whose incoming links were not deleted) after they are indexed only to disappear again. I would ask Tech Support to remind me why Technorati tracks blogs yet, there has been no response from Tech Support other than this ticket number. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, Debbie At least, Technorati respects you by replying (Ian Kallen above).

I would be glad if Technorati made an official announcement about this, because it will let a lot of people know what is happening.. @IAN, thanks for dropping by and letting us know what exactly went wrong.

My blog doesnot get indexed by technorati, so I wrote eMails to the support, but the reaction is only an autoresponder. Problems with Blogtracking: Of course a newbie in the blogosphere and already talking large, but that’s me! It sounds good to be member at Technorati. But that’s easier writen than done. Everything goes well: I registered an account, yeah it works. Now click to edit the profile and claiming the own blog, to get the marvellous widget. But the server is answering: “There was a problem claiming your blog. Please try again in a few minutes. You can also go to Technorati Help for help claiming your blog.” Everything gone well: Of course I read the message and followed the instruction. I waited a few minutes, the servers are simply overloaded and tried it again: After more then 3 hourse (mare then 180 minutes, is this the definition of few?) again the same error message. Sure! I looked at the support-forum. But what was I finding? Many users with the same problem. In the hope to get help I posted my problem. Just the same: No help! Desperation and Frustration: 14 hours later!The problem persists: No possiblity to claim the blog at Technorati. By the way it’s amazing the new web 2.0. It’s blinking, it’s dynamically and the error messages are really nice. But at its heart the same problem as in former days: IT IS NOT WORKING! I think on myself: Technorati is a modern web-2.0-enterprise, it is knowing the basics of marketing by heart. It has a perfect support. But… At a post in the support-area: So, I tried for a few minutes (> 1000 min) to claim my blog http://www.guru-20.info. But I always get the same error message ‘try in a few minutes again’. Perhaps the error message is wrong. I think it should be “We don’t want you as customer, leave this page immediatly?”, or is there another solution for this problem? There was no (really not one) reaction. Are humans in this enterprise? Of course, but they belive, sometimes the customers will be calm and we have solved another problem. I think, that an enterprise taking care of the fast media “Blog”, has to react fast too! I have the same problem.

Earlier this week, we found a number of issues with updates flowing through the system. This effected people who don't ping us directly but ping other update receptors (weblogs.com, pingomatic, etc) that we derive updates from. Additionally, we had a separate (and more pervasive) problem with data flow on Friday and Saturday, updates that were crawled weren't surfacing in the search indices. While some of these things are shaken out, there are other issues requiring database upgrades that will take a bit more doing to complete. We're on it. thanks, -Ian Technorati > …Technorati Bot did hit quite a while ago. But I guess the problem
