Technorati Ping Problems

This would normally be a post for my Pleasanton Web Design Blog, but therein lies the irony. Technorati doesn't like that blog. It tells me I haven't updated for 393 days. I don't believe that is accurate. I've pinged the crap out of them, written new posts, and even deleted my claim to the blog and reclaimed. Still didn't work. This blog is pinging and updating Technorati just fine. I have a WordPress blog on my Web Design Website that is also pinging and updating with no problem. I checked all of my settings on Blogger Beta, and they're tip-top. Is it them or is it me? It's them isn't it.

Well according to the plethora of comments (including mine now) on this similar technorati ping problem blog post, yeah it's them. I have an email into support and am hoping for a timely resolution to the matter.

I've had a similar problem with Technorati, which says it hasn't received a ping from my blog in 144 days now (not true--I posted today). In my case, the last successful ping corresponds roughly to the time I upgraded to Blogger beta. Might that have to do with the problem?

Same problem here with http://www.nomad4ever.com.

It isn't indexed and says not updated in 213 days! Hello???

But anyway, I guess Technorati is losing more and more of their own 'authority' these days. I get less than 0.5% traffic from them, so actually no reason to care, right?

Cheers from Bali,
