I had lunch with Tantek and Ryan of Technorati yesterday (Niall forgot, and ate early; photos of his gnat-eating plants forthcoming). We mainly discussed microformats, continuing a discussion we were having over on my personal site: Fussing about formats, Microformats love vCards -- more on this later, although I've done my bit and filed the hCalendar feature request already.

So, I'm over here thinking I should probably claim my Bryght blog: Technorati Profile

It's kind of a pain to claim weblogs in a multi-user system like Drupal. I haven't looked, but are group blogs handled in some way by Technorati? That's essentially what the blogs page here on Bryght.com is -- the combination of all our local posts. Well, like many other services (yes, like Flickr and del.icio.us -- we are doing this, DKR), I suppose a Technorati module is called for. Plugging in all of these external web services should work the same way: enter in the username and password of the remote service and voila! -- your remote "stuff" is integrated locally. In Technorati's case that would start by auto-claiming your blog, and perhaps allowing you to enable a block with your Technorati profile automatically.
