out Google's very own new Blog Search Engine at: http://blogsearch.google.com
With
the high interest people have in reading Blogs, it is
certainly no surprise that Google has just launched their own
new Blog search engine. Google is by no means the very first
search engine to create blog search functionality. Other
smaller companies like Technorati
and Feedster have had
similar type search services around for quite a while.
Currently it is in its Beta test phase. There is some
speculation in general, that other major search engines will
be following the trend with their own brand of Blog search
engines.
Blog Search contains many of the "advanced search
capabilities" of the regular web search engine, such as
Advanced
Blog search also includes searching in other foreign languages
such as:

As
we teach our students more about creating useful Blogs that
serve some purpose, it only stands to reason that people will
want to be able to search through literally billions of Blog
topics to find just what they're looking for. Will Google be
the most popular Blogging search engine in the future? Will
they introduce methods of monetizing Blog search results in
the future? I am sure we can count on some interesting
developments things progress in the future.
Interesting.
I've noticed occasional press releases through news feeds
showing up in the Blog Search results. It's also handy to be
able to sort results by relevance or sort by date. By all
means give Google's Blog Search Engine a testing of your own
and see what you come up with. Check it out at: http://blogsearch.google.com
