It has been while, since team has technorati made it to news. Seems they noticed it too and now started indexing twitter pages. This means you can claim your twitter page like a normal blog on technorati.
Twitter indeed is a kind of micro-blogging, and so twitter pages on technorati will have authority, favorites, reactions and other stuff just like a normal blog.
Steps To Add Your Twitter Page To Technorati Account….
- Log into your technorati account.
- Go to blog tab under My Account section. (link)
- Type your twitter page URL to start claim process. (e.g. http://twitter.com/rahul286)

Once claimed you can add description and tags for your twitter blog. I don’t know how technorati will make use of tags added for twitter pages, as small tweets do not have facility to tag them.
Also as most links on twitter are shared via tinyurl, tweets about your blog posts will not help increase your blogs authority (technorati ranking).
Anyway there seem a rush on technorati to claim twitter pages, as I got following server error page when I first clicked “Begin Claim” button. But it worked just after refresh. ![icon smile Claim Your Twitter Page as A Blog On Technorati [New Feature]](http://devilsworkshop.org/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif "Claim Your Twitter Page as A Blog On Technorati [New Feature]"){kind=icon}

Technorati now does’nt allow to claim twitter pages. Take a look at this and please update your post:

“What does Technorati consider as a blog?
We do NOT consider the following as Blogs:
•Forums, social networks, chat streams, web pages or standalone feeds.
•Aggregation Sites that are aggregation of blogs or posts from other blogs, planet sites, feed splicers, etc. However, each blog can be indexed individually under its original blog URL.
•Standalone Feeds: Technorati indexes blogs via the blog home page with assistance of feeds only
•Permalinks: please do not ping with your permalink URLs “
@Dnyanesh Mankar -
Well they didnt specify anything about twitter explicitly.
Also twitter is technically micro-blogging platform so twitter pages are blog itself.
