Bug or Power Law?

Why does my new Technorati "faves' posts" sidebar widget keep showing recent posts for Ken Camp and Stowe Boyd (HI GUYS!), when folks like Sheila Lennon and Will have updated more recently?

Now I love this idea, IF it's not just going to become a mini-me of technorati's top 500 replicated across our blogs in this lil box. I hope it's going to be quite the opposite. Only semi-optimistic on that.

My understanding is that the new widget will act like a fast moving faves roll, with the most recent posts of your selected reading list showing up in the widget. On mine, that's not happening. What gives? Is there a bias against folks who don't have face icons on t'rati? Is it some kind of bug? Power Law reflection? Wha?

wood s lot updated yesterday, not 760 days ago like it says on my faves roll. Did I do something wrong? Does wood need a face?

I added 37 folks, purposely not focusing on my daily bread (and i mean brread), and purposely adding many others who I sometimes forget to read that I SHOULD be reading every day. I want them to appear in my little box based on the newness of their posts. Faces or not. Popular or not.

kay? thx.
