Google’s Lackluster Blog Search

I had mentioned earlier that Google’s Blogsearch is faster than other blog search engines but it throws up lot of splogs. BusinessWeek has an analysis of the same and mentions some of these defects as well.

The Good Lets users pick between most relevant and most recent blogs. And it's fast
The Bad Doesn't provide complete results, and includes too many spam blogs The Bottom Line The search giant fails to deliver a KO. For now, it's just another blog search engine.

Search the Web, and you plow through a vast digital library. Things don't change much from one day to the next. But searching the world's fast-growing universe of blogs is another experience altogether. Blogs show us what people are talking about today. If Web sites show us what the world knows, blogs give us a read of what's on the world's mind.
