Startup Squad has highlighted a very real an imminent problem in the Technorati and TechMeme algorithm and visualization of blogosphere i.e “They dont archive the blogosphere in a chronological order”.
What this means is that the users are unable to find out who actually broke the story and who leeched onto it 10 hours later. So popular blogs could at times just get the news from else where and take credit for it as far as Google, Technorati and Techmeme are concerned. This is not a new issue Andy Beard reported an actual event in which he broke a story but Mashable was credited for it.
I personally think this would be a great feature and one that is highly needed. So TechMeme if you are reading, do consider churning it out quickly as this will address a terrible need of a Long Tail of Bloggers in almost all domains. A new entrant might as well take a shot at it, the idea is genuine and the need is real.
