Subject: Technorati Now Supports Blog Claiming via OpenID

>From the Technorati blog http://technorati.com/weblog/2006/10/144.html:

> Blog claiming enables a blog author to associate their identity with 
> their blog. Technorati has long supported a number of different ways 
> for members to verify that they can author on a blog:
>
>    * Logging into it programmatically with a username and password
(AKA "quick claiming")
>    * Posting to it with a special link (AKA "post claiming")
>    * Adding a text token to your template (AKA "embed claiming")
>
> OK, that sounds complicated. Well, we've added another way for authors

> to claim their blogs using OpenID. And if you're using an OpenID
enabled
> blogging platform, it's easy-like-Sunday-morning easy.
>
> Developed by LiveJournal wunderkind Brad Fitzpatrick (he probably
hates
> being called that, sorry Brad), OpenID is an identification system
that
> is enjoying a groundswell of attention and adoption.
>
> Going forward, this is how authors using blogging platforms that
support
> OpenID can claim their blogs on Technorati with it

This is really awesome news!
