Blake Schwendiman's Blog and Blook

Do you use Technorati? Are you a blogger? If you answered "yes" to both of the previous questions, you can benefit from my new online tool.

You see, I use Technorati tags in almost all of my blog posts. You can see them just below each post. You'll see the word Tags then a series of links to relevant tags in my entry. Basically what these are for is to help Technorati categorize my article. If my article is a movie review, then I'll put the tag "movie review" at the bottom so when people search for movie review blog entries on Technorati, they can find one of my exceptionally good movie reviews.

The thing that's been killing me lately is that I've been typing in (or cutting and pasting) the same general code over and over and over. I'm a programmer and so eventually I'll pass the threshold of where I get sick of performing the same repetetive tasks and I'll take the time to build a little program to do it. That happened for me today.

I built a little Technorati tag link generator that's free to use. Try it out. Make suggestions. Pass it along to your friends.
