- Dan?!, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3"Cool. More blog related crap.
The emo's shall pray to google."
Not all blogs are emo. Actually, most aren't. Many business, graphic design, and tutorial sites are blogs now.
Oh and would you two from geek2us.net
STOP POSTING YOUR URL AFTER EVERY SPAM MESSAGE YOU PUT. IN EVERY SINGLE TOPIC YOU POST SOMETHING LIKE, "Cool. geek2us.net -Coffee." Stop it. - startnext, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1"Google is too corporate now. Squash out all the small startups, etc."
Not so. Google buys up all the worthy startups, squash the ones foolish enough to compete head-on, and the rest find their ways to survive.
Google is not responsible for making sure all the startups make it and get rich. - bozric, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1little disappointed that it keys more off user names than blog titles - had better search results looking for my user ID than either my blog title or any of its keywords...

Trying to increase their google rank. It's pretty low, and anyone who sees this should mod it down as the spam it is. If we want to visit your stupid ***** website, we'll look at your profile. - TokenUser, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Great - Google is now the biggest blog on the planet. Blogs have their place, they form a great platfor for content publishing, but the problem is it means every man and his dog has a personal blog, and noone cares.
For the geek2us.net haters - I haven't seen their comments in ages ... that is what the "X" next to the "Rate Comment" box is for. They are now on my bozo list ... unfortunately there is no way for me to see who else are on my ignore list - its a oneway trapdoor. - ElGstr, on 01/06/2009, -0/+1Cool

There's an old Sufi expression that goes "One who thinks the same way at 50 as they did at 20 has wasted 30 years of their life". However, J. Robert Oppenheimer said after witnessing the world’s first nuclear explosion he had been the director of, “I am become death, shatterer of worlds.” He was quoting from the Bhagavad Gita. That’s how regimes like communist controlled China perceive blogs, as shatters of their world. - headzoo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Very cool. Wish I could digg it twice.
- Dave, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0sweet!
- CronicusX, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Wow.
Digg This - startnext, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The shoe finally dropped! Now what's technorati going to do?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0That's cool. My blog is already included on there, and it's completely independant (not LJ or MP or blogger or anything). Sweet.
- onestep, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This is awesome.. I was awaiting a search engine like this....
now my sites come right up on the search.. Very Cool! - trex, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Astounding. Simply astounding.
- sahaskatta, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Google launched this exactly @ 12:00!
P.S. I wonder if anyone is going to use www.technorati.com anymore? - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Yeah, very good idea whoever had it. I hope that it evolves.
- partisan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0finally a blog search that'll respect quotation marks around terms.
praise jesus. - pcgeek101, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"Does this mean that they'll remove blogs from the normal google results? One can only hope."
That would be terrible. It would mean twice the searching to find a piece of possibly useful information. I frequently come across blogs that contain better information than a lot of informational websites do. - L0rdDiabl0, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0At last, one of the big search engines launched one.
I bet MSN and Yahoo will quickly release theirs too. - ellingswin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"coming next from google, People Search. Type in any person's name and all of their personal information appears right on the screen!!!"
- twistymcgee, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Dan?! - They are doing it kinda like a signature, but yeah it is annoying. Your best bet is to rate the comment as spam.
- nickstarr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Is there a way to ping google to tell them of updates?
- jesusphreak, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Well this pretty much destroys Mark Cuban's "Icrerocket.com" as the best blog search engine.
- pcgeek101, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"Very cool. Wish I could digg it twice."
me too. I love Google ... - Otto, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Does this mean that they'll remove blogs from the normal google results? One can only hope.
- tyrelb, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Google is too corporate now. Squash out all the small startups, etc.
- Leech, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0good bye technorati!
- DardanAeneas, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Poor Technorati, etc. Google's service will be great, I'm sure, but I hope they keep it simple and allow other, more feature-rich blog searches to survive. This is the first time Google has "felt" like Microsoft to me; although I know it's not the same: Google releases free service, free service crushes the competition. Actually upon using my brain, I can see that this is totally different from MS's stomp of Netscape back in the day, totally. So much for feelings pre-9AM in the morning.
- CoolSilver, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Cool I found a comment about me on someone's blog. About digg.
This person thinks I am a moron. I thought it was funny. I say thank you.
Just another person openly admiting that some ignorance can not be priced or destroyed. - warofwrath, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"Google launched this exactly @ 12:00!
P.S. I wonder if anyone is going to use www.technorati.com anymore?"
I for one won't. Long live Google! - bollweevils, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Yeah, I second bozric's comment. This doesn't do a particularly good job of sorting the results. Beta indeed.
- Daracle, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I don't quite understand what this will do that google didn't before hand.
Unless they will remove the blog hits from the regular google searc - macman81, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Yay! Go Google!
- dignan2681, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Awesome digg. Is there anything Google can't do?
Geeks2...Just kidding! - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I third bozric's comment. Motion passed. On the other hand, good digg!
- Machismo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I am kinda wondering why this is so important. Perhaps I am just ignorant of some of the benefits of blogs.
- MarcoRaaphorst, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0it's great. but hopefully they will integrate it with the default google-search.
- whalesalad, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Oh teh n0es! T3chn0rati is teh d3ad!
- CountZero, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I'm liking this. Normally, if I were to do, say, a Google search for my name (and my last name is a regular word), I never find myself. But now I can.
- burtonator, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I blogged about this last night..
Decent first implemenation. I still think there's room for Technorati...... - Otto, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0@pcgeek: That's pretty funny, considering I usually have to add "-blog" and other keywords to eliminate useless blogs from my Google searches to find really useful information.
- JamesWilson, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0While there are a lot of excellent blogs out there, I hope google will be able to filter out the AOL Hometown and Geocities equivalents of the blogs out there. Animated gifs, horrible English, and near-worthless content occupies this webspace, rotting.
I hope Google will figure a way to parse this or remove it from its cache as I don't want Google to match this query:
DATA TAPE IZ
with:
"iz data bitch or what, her and her video tape of that slut" - bonlebon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Hmmmm beta.. is google alright...
- Armitage, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I've been wanting them to do this for a long time, now they need to me an optional way to exclude blogs from the main search.
- TokenUser, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0No - the comments were moderated down using the "Rate Comment" drop down to something below your "Comment View Threshold" (I am guessing yours is currently set to Neutral).
No offense, but knowing how to use digg should be a link everyone has to follow before they "get in". - disord3r, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Great... now bloggers are going to get more traffic they wouldn't have otherwise, causing them to redouble their blogging efforts, thus filling the web with exponentially more useless crap.
THANKS GOOGLE! - matthewchen, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0try an interesting source code search engine at http://www.codase.com
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I prefer Technorati
