Technorati Project Manager in San Francisco, CA: (Past Employee - 2007)

“It was a great idea in 2003”

Pros

It's proximity to South Park, where there are many good restaurants to eat at. There are still some smart people at Technorati, but the vast majority of the "stars" left long ago for greener pastures. Even two years ago it was worth it just to be surrounded by good thinkers and lot of energy, excitement.

Cons

Bad engineering, unstable platform, lots of fire drills, website no one wants. It was a great idea when it started, bloggers loved it. Not sure what the current direction is, but serving ads to blog readers is done better by Google.

Advice to Senior Management

Getting rid of DS was too little, too late. Your platform doesn't work right, your spider re-write is overdue, and bloggers are stopping caring about you. You ignored your customers in search of new markets but without customers, it won't matter.
