I live in Texas and if it were not for Technorati, I would not know Ron Paul’s name, or that he is a Congressman from Texas. Maybe it’s just that two first names thing that strikes me as a little too cute, or the fact that he doesn’t seem to fit in with the rest of the Technorati Top Ten List. He’s another old white guy that wants to be President. His claim to fame seems to be that he wants to get out of Iraq and he’s a Republican-Gasp.
Vanessa Anne Hudgens is the star of Disney’s High School Musical, recently the most watched cable show in history. Oh yeah, she was photographed without her clothes the other day. She has the number one spot on Technorati. Which is the normal kind of thing that gets the number one spot on the Technorati Top Searches List. Other women who think clothing are optional that appear on the list are Wanda Nara, Paris Hilton, Melayu Bogel, and Vanessa Hudgens twice more. These are all pretty young women that do not look like an old white guy who is running for President.
YouTube is also a Techonrati Popular regular, as there is always some odd thing or another making its way around the web. I recently posted the video for the Heineken Commercial with the Robot Woman. But the fact of the matter is, I don’t spend much time hanging at YouTube. Not that I don’t like it, I just don’t have enough time to sift through all the silliness for something I might like. I do like it though. It has a lot of fun stuff, stuff that changes all the time. And is not much like an old white guy running for President.
Myspace is another regular on Technorati’s popular list. This is a place that started out as somewhere for bands and their groupies to hang out together. It is probably best known now as a place for old white guys to score underage girls, or at least look all the photos of those that think clothing is optional. At least there is an old guy connection here. Though not one Ron Paul would want anything to do with.
Frank Rich is the other odd name on this list of hip and trendy spots on the web where the kids hang out. He’s a columnist for the New York Times. Frank Rich is an old white guy that doesn’t like George Bush, which is no longer news, as you’d be hard pressed to find too many people that still love good old W. Still he doesn’t seem to fit in with the mostly nude women that populate this list on a regular basis either.
Is there some conspiracy going on to put old white guys on Technorati? There are a lot of bloggers with nothing to say, so they look at the popular lists and then write about them, like here today. Ron Paul seems to want to get rid of most of the Federal Government, which always sounds like a good idea. Except to the millions of people that work directly, or indirectly for the Federal Government. Frank Rich wants change too, and one way or another, change is coming.
Maybe we should just forget about Ron Paul and the rest of the old white guys.
Noelia for President! (Noelia is a Puerto Rican pop singer that wears skimpy clothing and is often on Technorati’s Top Ten List)
