Volunteers Initiative Nepal (VIN) is a non-government and non profit organization (NGO) which was founded by a group of development workers, educationists, advocates, social activists, cultural and tourism experts, ex-volunteers and other professionals. The organization has officially been registered under Society Act with the District Administration Office Kathmandu, Nepal (Reg No.147/062/63). This has also been affiliated to the Social Welfare Council (SWC) (Affiliation No. 20910) Nepal. VIN has been a good forum for development practitioners and professionals.

From its establishment in 2006, VIN has been providing most affordable volunteering opportunities in different sectors. It has been mobilizing international and local volunteers in various programs providing essential trainings and counseling, which contribute significantly to the development of poor and marginalized communities of Nepal.

I have been watching my ranking number slip down the greasy Technoratu pole for 4 months now and cannot understand why Technorati is so highly rated.

I am glad that Scoble finds Google better than ttechnorati. I do too.

In fact I am concerned about how technorati's ranking methodologies work when you consider that when you search my site (http://iscatterlings.com) you will see it is now ranked in 108,057 spot.

You are invited to look at how recently ago Technorati updated my ranking versus how recently they claim I last updated my site. Yes 37 days ago!!

If you saw this you'd not bother visiting my site and would think I am the laziest blogger out.

So thanks Technorati and a special thanks for responding to my email to your support crew many days ago. I am still waiting.

David, this is a good, insightful article, but I've got to disagree with part of your your first sentence, "one of the three things a blog should have is a blogroll."

Like you said later in the article, the patent has elements that sound a lot like PR. And if that's the case, then saying a blogroll will help a blogs rank is like saying a links page will help a website's rank.

Based on the information you cited in the patent I say...

- Being in another blog's blogroll - good.
- Having blogs in your own blogroll - irrelevant.

As a test, a friend of mine from a previous job went to my website, from her computer. She clicked on a couple of ad sense links that in Google states are worth about $5.00 - $15.00 each. She was truly interested in the clicks and searched around those sites for some time.

The interesting thing is I did not receive any credit for those clicks. In fact, it did not show up at all on the reports.

I did see a couple of clicks for unrelated terms. Terms that I know she did not click on, because those terms are not something that is found on my website.

Now, this is very interesting and concerning. If we allow Google to hold on to our money until it builds up, and they do not give out any interest by putting it in a money market fund or another interest bearing account, why bother?

Another disappointment by the Big G.
