Hey guys,
I’m taking a short (1 day) break from the New Markets for Genre Writers series to try out a Technorati experiment. The basic idea is for you to add me to your favourites list and I’ll add you back! This thing has already gone viral, so it’s hard to trace back to its roots, but it’s certainly going to be one of the bloggers in the following list.
For my list, I just picked the people that’ve given me the most “link love” since the blog started, as well as some of my favourites to read.
Here’s how it goes:
1. Click Here and Add me to your Technorati Favorites List
2. Leave a comment on this post that you’ve added me. Put YOUR Technorati Favorite URL in the comment so I can add you too.
3. I’ll add you to my Technorati Favorites list once I receive your comment.
Please copy the following section into your post. It’s easier to copy the links if you hit “View Source” under the “Page menu” of your browser, otherwise you have to reconnect the links manually.
***Start Copying Here***
Here are the rules:
- Write a short introduction paragraph about how you found the list, including a link to the blog post that referred you to it.
- Copy the rules and entire list below and post it on your blog. To avoid duplicate content and increase the number of keywords to each site, change up the titles of the blogs. Just don’t change the links.
- Take the “My New Faves” and move them into “The Original Faves” list along with your site. Make sure all links are working properly.
- Add 3 blogs to your Technorati Favorites and link them in the “My New Faves” section. Don’t forget to add the “Fave Me” link next to the new blogs (i.e. http://technorati.com/faves?sub=addfavbtn&add=http://www.yourfavesdomain.com)
- Add Everyone on this list to your Technorati Favorites List by clicking on “Fave this Site.” Those who want good kharma will fave you back. If not, you will for sure get the benefits of faves from the bloggers who continue this list after you.

Wow, this is just like one of those old-fashioned internet pyramid schemes, but with links instead of five dollar bills. Cool.
I have no idea why our site is up there; I don’t think Bigham would have any experience with Technorati, and I certainly haven’t joined in this fun yet. It’s a Christmas miracle. I wonder if Steve has already connected some account on Technorati to CriticalOddness.com that I should know about.
I got the list from Steven who’d already tagged you!
These internet schemes tend to work. I only wish I’d thought of it first!
I have not connected CriticalOddness.com to any account, you have to make a test post to register the blog correctly…
I added CriticalOddness.com because I needed 3 blogs to talk about, and whats better then mine, JordOn’s and yours.
Lets see what happens in a month, right now I got 4 fave. by the end of the month I want 50.
Jordan -
I plan on doing this, it just sounds rather complicated to my tired little brain and I’ve many things to catch up on after my long vacation. I’ll figure it out and join the fun.
Howard,
It’s not too complicated. Should be a simple cut and paste job. The problem is contacting all the people on your list and asking them to add you as their favorites!
