Big news: Technorati launches language filtering !

Posted at 14:27 | Permalink | 3 Comments | View blog reactions

Congrats to David and his team, who has just announced (and make me test at 5 AM in San Francisco for him, go to bed, Dave) the brand new language recognition feature of Technorati, long awaited in Europe. Here is a keyword search limited to French on my name (you know my ego :p)

Currently Technorati supports Chinese, Dutch, English, French, German, Greek, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese and Spanish.

Technorati rocks currently, with the latest stats:
80 000 new blogs per day
900 000 posts per day
37 500 posts per hour
40% month-to-month growth
over 14 million blogs now indexed

and I like the integration with Newsweek, disclosure, I am an investor in Technorati.

"keyword search limited to French"... When I follow that link, I see some English results as well. I think I see some Italian in there, too.

The URL to get French only is actually: http://www.technorati.com/search/loic%20le%20meur?language=fr

Heiko's right: there are some non-French blogs in there, but hey, it's beta.

About

Welcome to my blog. Based in San Francisco, I am an entrepreneur and a blogger. I just started my fifth startup, Seesmic, a community driven video social software. Here is what TechCrunch says about it.

I am blogging every day a video on loic.tv about (almost) everything I do as I start Seesmic, I also constantly post short thoughts to twitter and often my pictures on Flickr.

I also organize every year in Paris the conference LeWeb3 that gathers more than a thousand bloggers and entrepreneurs from 40 countries on Dec 11 and 12.

If you would like to learn more, here is a bio, my LinkedIn profile, my wikipedia pages in english and french. Sometimes they are subject to changes that do not always reflect what I consider the truth but that is the principle.

You may also want to subscribe to my RSS feeds in English, French or my video podcast feed.
