Welcome to BlogMon - there are great bloggers out there...
You can find here results from a small application I wrote for monitoring Technorati rank changes over time. I find these blogs and bloggers in two ways: The first is the same way as you add links to your favorites when you like the content. The second is pragmatically by "crawling" the data in a certain way that is helping me to find more great resources. You can see this as a dynamic favorites or another way to find who is consistently getting the crowd's attention. I know that it seems simple yet I have my share of complexity dealing with multiple constrains and "interesting" data.
.
If you like to submit your blog for monitoring please enter the details in the contact form on the right. Please add your Blog URL in the Comments sections.
EMAIL IS OPTIONAL!!! - I don't need it for montioring your blog. I do need your blog URL.
Two conditions: 1. It should be claimed at Technorati. 2. The blog and its content should be something I won't be embarrassed to open up at work.
Since Technorati allows me only 500 API calls a day (for now) I don't monitor all the blogs on my list every day. And I will not be able to accept all the requests, so this is based on first come first served. I do slow down the scan's frequency for slow or negative progressing blogs. I monitor today just under 800 blogs.
Title.
What the picture on the left shows? It shows a result of a crawl up (in authority) from a certain blog through links pointing to that blogs with higher authority. This check happens recursively at any leve, till it finds none. The aim was to see who reacted to you and has higher authority than you (who to look up to?). The pictures demonstartes how much time my crawl algorithm spend scanning blogs with authority under 2000. It kind of remind me of Seth's Godin book: The Dip.
