Here a Tag, There a Tag, Technorati Tag Search

David Sifry of Technorati announced today that they now support Tag Search across leading Social software sites. Sifry goes on to write:

In other search engines, the only people using words to purposely be found are advertisers and search engine optimizers. With tags, people are adding value to the web in the same way they create links, accreting structure for their own, their friends and the web itself. This may change as tagging grows alongside the popularity of blogging and social software. In the early 1990s metakeywords became saturated. But metakeywords were only meant for search engines, had no transparency and no community. It was back when the web was a collection of pages, instead of a living place. Besides technical methods to curb tag spam like clustering, the implicit social network represented in Technorati's link-based authority and other techniques based on the intelligence provided by people offers alternatives.

This is something that I have been testing for a while with social software sites. But the cat's out the bag now huh?! To those who work in Search Engine Optimization and Search Engine Marketing out there the implications of this are: ____ (fill in the blank with your own word here).... Need I say more!
