Technorati- Fave Exchange, MyBlogLog and Bloglines. Aaarrrggghh!

confusedThis is just a questions for our self-proclaimed tech geeks. I'm seeing a lot of requests for "Fave Exchanges" on Technorati. I assume this is just for Technorati rankings? I thought Google was down-rating link exchanges unless they were done in the 3-step circle. Does Technorati not work the same way? And is the 3-step circle information still correct, or did that also change when Google changed the algorithms?

And then there's the fact that I can't "claim" my Active Rain blog with Technorati. I have it claimed through MyBlogLog, but I can't claim it through Technorati. Does anyone know the reason for that? I also can't claim my Blogger blog, MyBlogLog or my Bloglines blog, even though it says I should be able to.

One more monkey wrench, but in reverse. I tried to claim my Technorati page in MyBlogLog, and it wouldn't take. That's the first time I've had a problem in MyBlogLog. Do these two just not want to work together? 

Thanks for any information you can provide. It's all I can do to keep up lately.

The technorati blog claim has never "stuck" for me.  I've had to redo it a few time.  I'm also kind of internetted out and exhausted by all the "opportunities" to network out there.  Yeesh

There are only two blogging platforms.

1.  ActiveRain

2.  All the rest.

Lisa.... I guess I will park it here, because I am semi lost....  you talk about 3 step circle information?  Is that in between the 2 step dance and the 12 step program?  My problem is that I can't get my blog log recent readers thingy to show up on my right side. Bueller?  Bueller?

Chris- I'm pretty overwhelmed too. Technorati used to be the biggest but around here it looks like MyBlogLog has taken over. And based on the results and ease-of-use, I can see why!

Lenn- Thanks. That was very helpful!

Jeff- I forget who wrote the post... I think it was Karen George, about the 3-step circle of linking. If you exchange links between 2 sites or posts, they cancel each other out. So you link one to the next one, then the third one back to the first one. I guess Google is OK with that. But I don't know if tat information is still accurate wince Google changed it's algorithm. What was Bueller's friends name? That's me.

Hey Lisa,  I have never been able to get technorati to work for me....never been able to get mybloglog to work either.  :(  Maybe that should be my New Year's Resolution.  :) 

I'm parked for class also.

Stephanie- MyBlogLog is usually pretty easy to figure out. It just takes some time of wandering around the site until you get the hang of it. I think you probably shouldn't bother with Technorati. I don't think I will anymore either.

I've heard of Technorati, but haven't looked into it.  Guess I won't for now.  MyBlogLog? This is new.  3-link circle?  Parking!  I'm in!  Will take any lessons you care to share.

OK, Lisa. I too will be parked here. I have not gotten the Technorati claim thing either.
