[videoblogging] tags and wordpress

2006-04-02 Thread Richard Show



In reading about technorati tags, it says that, if you make a category in wordpress that technorati will recogize and categologue that feed.I created a cateogry for video blog week 2006 and used it for my day before vlog week post.
I actually called the tag video blog week 2006, but for the slug I put it all together as one word videoblogweek2006... Should that work?(when I got to 
http://www.technorati.com/tag/videobloggingweek2006 it doesn't show anything, even though I did the update/ping thing with my vlog)... Any help from wordpress/tagging experts much appreciated ... thanks .. Richard

True. :o)

Nope. :o)

You're at URL: http://www.technorati.com/tag/Video%20Blog%20Week%202006   
- in other words you need to kill the spaces from the category name.

I, on the other hand, seem to be banned. My blog post from yesterday still  
isn't showing up in technorati.

Richard was using categories in Wordpress so Technorati is supposed to  
pick up from his feed (which it did, but Richard was using the tag video  
blog week 2006 and not videobloggingweek2006). He wasn't using relTag.

Hello,OK, I looked at Richard's source code (which I probably should have done right away) and I see the problem.Now this is something I've argued against over at Microformats.org
, but Technorati gets the category name from the URL you link to.Normally, if you had a rel=tag link URL like:
http://example.com/this/is/it/NewTubeThen your category would be NewTube. I.e., Technorate looks at the last word (if you want to call it that) in URL.Richard's link URL (for videobloggingweek2006) is:
http://www.richardshow.com/?cat=7Which does NOT have videobloggingweek2006 as the last word. Which is the problem Technorati is having.
Note, Technorati does this. But I (and others) don't like this and think that the word that you are using to make the rel=tag link should matter. However (last we discussed this), Technorati doesn't care about that. (And they don't care about the title attribute either.)

Re: [videoblogging] tags and wordpress

2006-04-02 Thread Andreas Haugstrup
The whole point of this excercise is to be able to see the videos others  
have posted. Ie. we must agree on a specific tag to use. Since last year's  
tag was videobloggingweek2005 this year's tag is  
videobloggingweek2006. Mashed together or not, it works. No spaces is  
easier to remember than was there a space between video and blogging  
too?.

 wrote: Hello, OK, I looked at Richard's source code (which I probably should have done right away) and I see the problem. Now this is something I've argued against over at 
Microformats.org, but Technorati gets the category name from the URL you link to. Normally, if you had a rel=tag link URL like: 
http://example.com/this/is/it/NewTube Then your category would be NewTube.I.e., Technorate looks at the last word (if you want to call it that) in URL.
 Richard's link URL (for videobloggingweek2006) is: http://www.richardshow.com/?cat=7 Which does NOT have videobloggingweek2006 as the last word.Which is
 the problem Technorati is having. Note, Technorati does this.But I (and others) don't like this and think that the word that you are using to make the rel=tag link should
 matter. However (last we discussed this), Technorati doesn't care about that. (And they don't care about the title attribute either.) See ya On 4/2/06, Andreas Haugstrup

 it   doesn't show anything, even though I did the update/ping thing with my   vlog)   You're at URL:  
http://www.technorati.com/tag/Video%20Blog%20Week%202006   - in other words you need to kill the spaces from the category name.
There's another important point when doing this tagging.   In the HTML code that is generated, you need to have rel=tag in
  hyperlink  for your tag.   So, for example, you'd need something like this:   a rel=tag  href=""
http://www.technorati.com/tag/Video%20Blog%20Week%202006  .../aAlso, you do NOT have to make your tag links point to Technorati.
 They  can  point to any site you want.So, for example, instead of using:   
http://www.technorati.com/tag/Video%20Blog%20Week%202006   You could have used:   
http://example.com/just/some/stuff/Video%20Blog%20Week%202006 Hope that helps.See ya

a href=http://technorati.com/tags/videobloggingweek2006;
rel=tagvideobloggingweek2006/a

[videoblogging] Tags

2006-01-20 Thread Rob Parrish
Hey all:

I would love someone to hold forth on tags.  I understand how tags
work on mefeedia, but what about imbedding tags into the intro text of
our posts?  Of the vlogs I frequent it doesn't seem anyone is using
them.  That is, I don't see them on people's sites.  Should we be
tagging our posts?  If so, how?

Rob

If you use the relTag format then your posts will show up as tagged in
Technorati and a few other search engines. The new FireAnt directory
will soon be recognizing relTag as well... in due time.

The relTag syntax is super easy and very well explained over here:
