I made an announcement in my blog about the upcoming release of Technorati tag module. You can read more and see it live in the linked blog entry. It basically creates a series of link to Tehnorati Tag Directory from a list of space separated words.
Any feedback will be really appreciated!

After positive feedback, I have decided to release the module. You can find it at http://www.flevour.net/node/124
Please let me know of any suggestion/bug/feature request that comes to your mind!

I've also made a different version of a technorati tags module which generates technorati tags that are filled with any taxonomy term names that the node corresponds to.

This is cool because it allows transparent posting to technorati tags, instead of depending on users to enter them.

If there is demand, I suppose these two similar modules could be merged together to be made even better:

I think Awtags module can do the job as well. It also provides some other useful functions. You may like to have a try.

There is a small bug in the module; nodes that were created before the module was installed lead to PHP warnings. Apply the following patch to fix that:

>                               if (is_array($tags))
75a77
>       if ($tags=='') return;

Unfortunately I didn't realize there was already a technorati tag module (it's not listed on the official modules page). So I took a look at the interwiki module and am halfway through fixing it to generate technorati tags.

I've got an example on this page: http://7gen.com/personal-blog-entry/2005jul261201/personal-finance/inves...

The tags at the bottom of the posting are done as: [technorati:Investing]

The modifications to interwiki are simple. I'm also learning my way through programming drupal extensions at the same time. My next step is to modify the admin screens ... To get this far I inserted the technorati data directly into the database rather than enter it through the interwiki admin screen.

I've installed this module (in 4.7) and activated it, but don't see how to tell Drupal to show me the technorati tag field on my posts. Are there configuration instructions somewhere?

Thanks!

Is there a 4.7 version of this module? Or, can anyone tell me how to convert it to 4.7? It does not work right in 4.7.

Thanks,

Hi there,
I didn't port the module to 4.7. I am a little busy at the moment so I am not planning to write the code for 4.7. If you or anyone are willing to patch it, I'd love to release it and provide credits. You may also check the derived modules linked above on this thread. Enjoy your blogging experience :)
Cheers,
flevour
