Technorati Offers Beta of New Redesign

Posted on June 12, 2005

Technorati is offering a new beta test. Technorati's new look has shades of green and grey and a user-friendly look. Technorati has also added a popular movie feature that is similar to the book feature that tracks which books are being discussed the most. The movie feature tracks which movies are being discussed the most on blogs based on the number of links to the movie's listing on IMDB.com. The site also includes watchlists that let people track tags, keywords and urls. Technorati is also now offering two new blogs: a Technorati company weblog and a blog for developers. A post on Technorati's new blog discussing the beta test says that tagging has also been improved:

We've learned from the incredible success of tags, and brought some of the those same features into search, as well as expanding tag functionality. Now, if your search matches a tag, we bring in photos and links from flickr, furl, delicious, and now buzznet as well.
