Wonder if they are really this bad or just don’t worry about sites with lower ratings like mine?  Been 2 days since they have shown any of my updates and I have even gone to their site and clicked on the ping button to tell their spider to check this site.  Still nada.  So they get yet another not happy post from lil ol me… 🙁

But not right.  Showing 4 posts with listings of the word Technorati and there are now 21 if I am counting correctly.  So looks to me like the great and wonderful is not either great or wonderful but buggy and not doing what it is susposed to do.    Maybe once in the top 100K list indexing is better but it should be the same for all.

Cat’s Calcis blog is not listed at all and it is set up just like the others we have that are.   Me thinks that there are lots of bugs in their system as of yet…

Wrote them yet again.  Not expecting any answer other than a autoresponse but will keep trying and posting about their lack of response with each passing day.

Just for giggles try going to the Technoprimitive feed at Technorati  and typing in technorati.  There are 18+ posts since August that show up when searched from the search box on Technoprimitive.org but Technorati shows 0.  And they are susposed to be one of the best sources for current info on the blogging web.  NOT from my viewpoint… 🙁

Technorati Blog Info: TechnoPrimitive

Another monday and as they are showing “Updated: 55 days ago” about Technoprimitive.org, still no joy from Technorati.    Guess I am a non-entity or person nongrata with them or have made it to their blocked list somehow. Wish they would let me know something but untill they do I will keep making these little unhappy posts about them ignoring my site…

Obligitory Technorati is still not taking pings from Technoprimitive.org post of the day…

Got to looking at the dates that Technorati is STILL showing as my last post on here and after doing a bit of math:

31 days in august
+
8 days so far in sept
=
39 total august and sept

52 Number of days since Technorati says blog updated
–
39 total of aug and sept
= leaving
13 in july

31 total number of days in july
–
13 number of days in july not updated
=
18 july is day Technorati quit accepting update pings from TechnoPrimitive

So I went to the July archive and found that the last thing posted before it quit updating was Russell Shaw: in fight against terrorists, popcorn factories more dangerous than uninspected container ships which was on July 15. The next thing I posted was on the 19 and was wiat-tv-42 so…

No site updates at that time unless it was something done by my host. And still no response or fix by Technorati.

So now back to my regularly unscheduled posting…

Update: Received the expected…
 Dear Technorati User,

Thank you for using Technorati and we hope we may be of service.

Technorati Blog Info: TechnoPrimitive

So today is either 49 or 53 days that none of my posts have showed up on Technorati.  All the other sites seem to be getting my updates but no joy with Technorati. Long weekend is over so maybe sometime today. Yea right… 🙁

With a form letter. Why didn’t they do that the first 2 times I sent this in. Or is this from the first or second complaint/plea for help. Here is the letter I got:

Went and deleted the feed at Technorati and redid the signup.  They find the new post fine but are still showing that I haven’t updated anything in 47 or 48 days.  And they don’t respond to the contact us thingie…

I suspect that it is all on their end as I am getting all of the other spiders but theirs.  Have checked my robots.txt file and it is the same as the one at my Nero Wolfe site and they are getting new posts there within 3 minutes.  Starting to piss me off!
