A ghost posting on my behalf

I was complaining the other day about the bad performance of Technorati. Since Technorati was actually down for maintenance when I posted my complaint, I decided to give them the benefit of doubt and just ran a search of this blog. And what can I see?.

If I am to believe Technorati, I have not made a single post in this blog since 3rd November 2006. That is in 90 days. If that is true then what the hell are you reading right now? A ghost post?

It is one thing to call themselves a blog search engine. Anybody can do that. They may look like a blog search engine and smell like a blog search engine but it would be fine if they also worked like a blog search engine is supposed to.

I am not expecting them to answer something as ancient as my support request of 27th July 2006, [Feedback] Error report #37751]. They would probably have answered it by now if they had an answer. I would be happy if they just got their act together and showed some performance.

  5. So you like being thirsty?

  6. Thirst is useful and good for our health. It sends a message from our body that we need to drink. I like to drink which is why being thirsty is good. It reminds me that I need to drink.

  7. The kind of drinking you’re supposed to do doesn’t include alcoholic bewerages.

  11. Thank you, both of you, for pointing out that I need to clarify my relation with beer and tobacco.

    Thomas, you seem to promt a post which would spell out why Finland is not a cheap country to live in. Maybe you are going to see such a post soon. Aber nicht weil ich bier drinke. :-P
