Hi, check my Technorati Tool (and his explanatory post). I'm sure you'll find it useful to check your favorites. Feel free to blog about it :-) (pleasepleaseplease let me know what you think about it)

Thanks, Andy. I was able to easily upload my Technorati favorites RSS feed as a new page element on Blogger, and it’s now pulling it my top 5 (that’s the preset maximum — I can’t find out how to up this # to 10 or more in the script) most-recent Technorati favorites posts on my blog.

I hope they’ll show up as a link on Technorati like yours are…

If you ever catch your most recent post being linked to my me, let me know!

Happy Weekend,
Paula

I did answer Paula

The output is just the RSS feed taken from Technorati, which using a plugin I cache every 30 minutes.

Followed by

I don’t know if Blogger can do the same with RSS, or whether it is outputted as javascript.

Maybe I will have to explore blogger a little and see how this can be achieved

Hey Andy – You never answered my question about how you got your links to your favorites on Technorati to show in your sidebar.

Is that a WP plugin or something I can use on Blogger, too?

Did you grab that code from the Technorati tools section?

Thanks!
Paula

Julian, thanks for the heads up, it was still pulling javascript from amazon s3 for TwitThis, and that was causing slow page loading.

There are a couple of rendering problems I am aware of, such as the header above the tags.

If there is something more specific I would love a little more detail.

I do check everything fairly frequently on both, but sometimes 3rd party code being pulled in messes things up.
