Week Six, Assignment #14

#14: Explore and learn how tags work with blog posts. Do a keyword search on “School Library Learning 2.0” in blog posts, tags, & the blog directory.

I found 5 hits on “School Library Learning 2.0” in Technorati when I searched blog posts. There were 7 hits on “School Library Learning 2.0” when I searched blogs. There were no hits on “School Library Learning 2.0” when I searched the blog directory. In the advanced search, I found no posts tagged with "School Library Learning 2.0". When I removed the quotation marks and searched again for posts tagged with those words, I found 4. Without the quotation marks, I found 5 blogs that had that exact phrase. (Remember, for comparison, I got 7 blogs about "School Library Learning 2.0" when I included the quotation marks.)

Next: Explore popular blog, searches and tags. Is anything interesting or surprising in your results?

I'll come back and finish this in my next posting.
