Evaluating Blog Search
Blogger Robert Scoble has done a quick blog search test to see how quickly the search engines pick up new posts.
For his test, Scoble has created a fake word, brrreeeport,and has asked bloggers to add that word to one of their posts (as I have done here).
Scoble is monitoring the number of posts that appear on Google Blog Search, Technorati and Feedster, as well as the main web search engines.
As of this afternoon, Technorati shows brrreeeport to be among the top blog searches, trailing only Quickdraw McGraw (Dick Cheney) in popularity.
It's an interesting assessment of how quickly the various engines pick up posts in the blogosphere.
