Technorati Tags
Even though activity here at NoCategories has been a little bit sluggish these days, I am anticipating greener pastures ahead. In that spirit, I’ve begun to look into these nifty things called Technorati Tags. Basically, these are links that allow content in a larger blog to be associated with keywords.
I thought that Jerome’s Keyword Plugin would be the easiest and best way to incorperate Technorati Tags, along with META keywords, into my posts. Annoyingly, that plugin almost completely defeats its own purpose by adding a list of every category in the blog to the list of keywords for any given post. So, for example, I write essays and poetry, but with this plugin installed, I’d be telling Technorati readers that my poems are essays and poems, I’d be saying that my essays are poems and essays — and that’s stupid.
Acme Technologies Zeitgeist has published a fix for the keywords part of Jerome’s Plugin that generates META keywords, and I sincerely hope that the same fix can be as easily adapted for the Technorati Tags as well.
