Technorati的官方Blog今天写到了它们向用户推出的一个调查问卷。这个问卷包括了33个问题，除了一些对用户数据的收集外，我们可以明确的看到Technorati在2006年的一些发展方向。

第29个问题：
Please indicate the extent to which the following statement is true for you: "I would be interested in seeing content from mainstream media sources along side content from blogs and bloggers."
Technorati会与主流媒体合作为用户提供更多来自mainstream media的内容。

第30个问题：
Please indicate the extent to which the following statement is true for you: "I would like to see the widespread adoption of a standard format for things like contact information, reviews (for movies, for instance), and event calendars, and for Technorati to surface search results for these."
2006年里，标准化分类信息，或者说Microformats将会在Technorati里得到广泛的应用。这也正好配合了即将到来的Structuredblogging普及。

第31个问题：
Please indicate the extent to which the following statement is true for you: "If Technorati were to offer advanced member services, advanced search and reporting tools, or other advanced features, I would be willing to pay a nominal fee for these."
第32个问题：
Please indicate the extent to which the following statement is true for you: "If Technorati were to offer specialized tracking and analytics products to help me meet objectives at my place of business, my company would be willing to pay a reasonable fee for such products."
Technorati可能会在2006年推出针对个人用户和企业用户的收费服务。

看来Technorati并没有完全打算等待着被收购。除了积极的跟上最新的技术潮流外，与主流媒体的合作以及收费服务的推出都会给Technorati带来新的收入来源。这个目前最的Blog搜索引擎最终能不能独立的获得商业上的成功，让我们翘首以待。
