Beyond Blogging 2006

Technorati and the AP

2:30 pm by Dan Horowitz

As if we needed another proof point to demonstrate how blogging and the social Web is changing the face of communications, big news this week from Technorati, as they announce their partnership with the Associate Press:

Technorati Teams With The Associated Press to Connect Bloggers To More Than 440 Newspapers Nationwide

When readers visit an AP member Web site that uses AP Hosted Custom News, they will see a module featuring the “Top Five Most Blogged About” AP articles right next to the article text, dynamically powered by Technorati. Additionally, when readers click on an AP article, Technorati will deliver “Who’s Blogging About” that article.

As we know here in DC, the Wash Post has been doing a similar feature on their site for a while, but now it looks like the news synced with the blog article is going nationwide. Great news!
