Skill Level

There are multiple ways to make this work for you. This will require some understanding of the structure of URL's, a personal account on Technorati, and content with Technorati tags added. The URL included in the tag must be extended to include your technorati username, as follows: ?user=username

Description

In late 2005 Technorati added the ability to review / search on a single user's tags. This allows registered users to maintain a set of posts / search results that are derived from their own content. This allows you to sort & display your posts by tag using Technorati's tag search function.

Method

Edit the Freshblog bookmarklet to include your Technorati username. This will generate tags that point to your individual userspace. Hard code the URL's into your sidebar (per Nathan at The Church at the Gate. Clicking these links runs a tag-search on your claimed blogs for the specified tag, and returns a list of all posts that include that tag.
