2000 Bloggers Update: Who’s Zooming Who?

By Blog Bloke February 7th, 2007 | 2 Comments Buzz thisBuzz it Share this on Facebook

Tino offers his own version of events and denies allegations of “gaming” the system. He also wryly points out that Jeremiah Owyang has managed to improve his pagerank and inbound links by causing the stink in the first place. Touché !

But perhaps more importantly, certain comments that were made on this blog by a technorati representative have brought into question the fairness of its pagerank system. For if they can arbitrarily filter out your links at their whim, where will it all end? Who is in control - Technorati, or the Blogosphere?

Food for thought.

      It’s just another example of how trying to ‘tweak’ democracy hurts democracy. Let it run it’s course. Shame on Technorati on this one.
