Don’t get me wrong - I love Technorati. They’re bringing out all kinds of new features - seeing other’s favorite blogs is neat - and generally have a great, useful site.

There’s only one problem: search unavailability.

I wrote about it back in August of ‘05. It’s actually been a lot better since then.

But a couple of weeks ago I started noticing searches coming back with the infamous “high volume of searches” busy message.

A great service that isn’t connected isn’t a great service.
