Technorati

Thing 14. Again I wasn't able to access everything in the Discovery Resources, the tip of the month link is no longer available. There were some interesting statistics in the State of the Blogosphere.
I had a good look around the Technorati home page but I wasn't able to do most of the Discovery Exercises. Either I'm blind or the site has been updated! I did a search for "libraries" in blogs and found some interesting library related blogs.

Delicious

Thing 13. The tutorial video was informative and helped in understanding how Delicious can be used. I noticed that the URL is different and wondered if other content may have changed. I wasn't able to access the other two resources so I searched for something similar on the internet and came across the Ultimate guide to delicious social bookmarking http://www.interactiveinsightsgroup.com/blog1/ultimate-guide-to-delicious-social-bookmarking/
I didn't go as far as opening a Delicious account but may do in the future. I can see that it could be useful for researching.

Twitter

For Thing 12 I had a look at Twitter. I went to http://twitter.com and found a Twitter guide at http://www.twitterguide.com.au/ which covers everything from how to get started and Twitter etiquette. I didn't go as far as signing up but I have a bit more of an understanding of what Twitter is all about.
