Nominations for the Open Media 100
AlwaysOn Network is working with Technorati to create a list of 100 top individuals who are leveraging the power of communities online to accomplish great things. The list is branded as the “Open Media 100” but has nothing to do with the Open Media Network. The list will not be ranked, but will include 100 individuals in the categories of pioneers, tool smiths, trendsetters, practitioners, and enablers. I am pretty sure members of the Open Media 100 need to publish a weblog and that requirement excludes people like Ward Cunningham or John Doerr. I think Dave Sifry and Joi Ito…

Technorati mention on Charlie Rose
Glenn Reynolds: “If I had a big organization, like say if I ran The New York Times or some piece of it, I would pay somebody — and you wouldn’t have to pay them a lot, it’s not very hard — to just plug the URL for every New York Times story into Technorati which will then give you a list of every blog that links to that story and see what people say.

Technorati office photographs
Last Friday I took some photographs of the Technorati office space to share with our community. We are located in what used to be a printing press building. What a perfect location blogging company! We even have a printing press in our building lobby. Enjoy!…
