So get this,

I checked out Technorati a few days ago and Ron Paul was the 2nd most popular search. Checked today, and he doesn't even register. I did a search for his name and found a lot of recent blog entries.

Anyone know what's up with this? Think he is being censored?

still #2 for me

Top Searches
1. authority
2. ron paul
...
14. britney spears
15. security

I wonder what is with Authority and Security being in the top searches.
Do you think it is Rudy's Stealth Marketing Campaign?
 
Weird. I just tried it again and the number 2 spot is grayed out... even the flame. If I refresh it, it goes away, but still no Dr. Paul.
 
It's totally bizarre

And technorati's #2 listing is grayed out.

This is either a bug (doubtful), or this is some sort of deliberate stunt.
 
Wow, someone take a screenshot, I also see it blanked out, oh, my, god ... now the front page shows "hillary clinton" ,, wow, this is unbelievable.
 
lets not jump to conclusions........... I was having problems with their listing other than RP.

Technorati is loving RP and I have never seen a reason to why they would want to put up any roadblocks. If this was a News Corp hosted site I would jump to conclusions though.
 
Eerrpp!... ***too ---.. many-..-.. Ron--.. Paul-.--...Articles*** - ERROR! Graying... out... name..... Must.... prevent.....crash..... arrrgggg...................
 
Yeah, I sent them an e-mail asking, but I noticed all the front top searches just shifted around, so it might just be database maintenance or the like. Why would hillary clinton be #1 on the front page, then ron paul get blanked out at the same time though, THAT does still seem suspicious... we shall see tomorrow I guess!
 
shows up fine for me. Might be a bug or a hack. I don't think it is intentional on technorati's part.
