Technorati Bakes Up Red Hot Kitchen

David Sifry, the man behind blog search and tagging engine Technorati, has launched an alpha version of a new feature called Explore.
Technorati's Kitchen features the latest in blog technology cooked up by Sifry and his staff. A feature newly announced at the Syndicāte Conference in San Francisco has gone live.
Sifry told WebProNews publisher Rich Ord that Kitchen serves as a place for Technorati to test out new ideas and elicit feedback. Sifry cautioned the Explore service is purely an alpha concept at the moment. According to the site, Explore shows what's hot in blogs on specific topics right now.
"It's hard to find things on Google based on time," said Sifry. "It doesn't understand time." Explore is Technorati's experiment in delivering content that is timely as well as relevant to the topic.
A quick Explore on "Google" returned plenty of results, with the top one having been posted 28 minutes prior to my search. The top nine results were all within the past hour or less.
Even though it is alpha, Explore proved responsive to our very brief testing. The service could bring a better experience to users interested in what blogs have to say and how quickly they are saying it.
