Incoming Links in WordPress 2.3
With the latest update of WordPress many people complained, including myself, about the WordPress developers decision to switch the “Incoming Links” from Technorati links to Google Blog Search links on the Dashboard.
I find this to be a pain in the ass actually. The only links I find under “Incoming Links” are my own recent blog posts! I liked it better before when I saw the recent websites that linked to me! I know that the Technorati links isn’t really reliable (as they say) but I still liked it better.
But thanks to a wonderful plugin creator, this problem can be fixed! Nusuni Technorati Links WordPress Plugin will change the Google Blog Search links back to the Technorati links.
There is also a piece of code you can change yourself according to a person in the WordPress Support Forum. I don’t know if it works since I took the lazy way with the plugin.
I changed mine doing it manually. It only took a second and worked like a charm.

Yes, you can do it yourself but thanks for the tip anyway.

That was one of the first things that I changed when I upgraded to 2.3!
