What value-add does a tool like Technorati offer your library?
Allows for wider audience for library services, with some 'authority' if others link to library blog.
Does the ability to monitor people's conversations and
the tags people are applying to their content offer additional research
portals for your products and services?
If used carefully ('authority' is a relative term, especially in the sense used by Technorati), then it useful.
How could you incorporate information Technorati offers into the research delivered to your users?
This depends on the research in question. Very valuable, if not essential, for research into how others are viewing an issue or company.
How would you maintain authority and reliability of information pulled from this resource?
As with any other resource, checking the website, checking 'who' (not how many) are positively linking to it, etc.
