Google offers blog search; no need to buy Technorati

While our friends at iProceed were suggesting that Google should buy Technorati to be able to provide blog search, it seems that the company has decided to do it on its own. Google Blog Search will literally search every blog that it can find.

So we did a quick search today and let us simply say that it is a good start. It is in no way as good as Technorati or any of the other blog indexing engines. Plus, Google will need to work really hard over next couple of months to index all the content that is out there in blogs though we know for sure that a lot of that content is available in the regular Google index.

Now Yahoo has been doing this for a while and so have several other search engines. MSN indexes blogs as web pages. But since Yahoo is otherwise such a bad search engine and we really do not think that apart from MSN and Google, there is anyone else to worry about. Losers like AOL or Ask Jeeves or dozens of other useless search engines are such a waste of resources.

This move by Google clearly shows that the company is strengthening its business model each day and is a really tough competitor to Microsoft.
