Technorati and Digg are two sites that calculate the validity and popularity of blogs and other content on the internet. Technorati bases its list of most prevalent sites on how timely the information is updated, what topics are being discussed throughout the internet, and how often the sites are updated. Digg uses "Diggs," which are props given by users who visit the site and decide it is relevant. The difference between the two is that Technorati seems to use more complex of a rating scale to find the top sites. Digg just relies on users to find the information and "turn it in" to Digg.com.
The top three Entertainment: Celebrity blogs for Technorati are:
1. Just Jared
2. Cele|bitchy
3. popbytes
The top three Entertainment: Celebrity blogs for this month on Digg are:
1. That's Right, Firefly > Twilight
2. Amazing Morgan Freeman Impression
3. Heart Attack-inducing Pic of Christina Hendricks
The main difference between Technorati and Digg is that Technorati rates whole websites/blogs, while Digg rates individual features, such as images, videos, and pages. The quality of the celebrity blogs rated by Technorati was high, and seemed to be very valid sites. However, Digg seemed to be more about entertainment.
