Tagbacks Just wanted to post a quick clarification from some of the discussion last month about .

The comment about Technorati's robots.txt is correct. There are no rules there for the tag pages there but in the tag pages themselves have instructed the googlebot with nofollow, this is in the markup:

<meta name="robots" content="index,nofollow" />
This won't stop tag spam that's just trying to get accidental clickthroughs (i.e. we know we have some more work to do) but it will deny google juice rewards (which is what they really want).
