    New Technorati: the end of web 2.0

    Does the new design of Technorati mark the demise of the โ€˜web 2.0โ€™ style? It just looks a lot more, well, like a normal website. Three columns. Small-ish fonts. Minimal use of colour gradients. Dave Sifry explains whatโ€™s going on:

    While we love expert bloggers, weโ€™ve also spent a lot of time making Technorati understandable to normal people.

    In other words โ€“ Technorati has grown up, got its hair cut, and bought some sensible clothes. Depending how you want to look at it, this is the mark of a company entering maturity, or the death of idealism. Itโ€™s probably both.
