Google pwns the Internet searchers. Today they launched the redesigned Google Blog Search. The old Google Blog Search returned results all right, but the quality of those results wasn't up to snuff compared with the traditional Google search.
Let's face it: You can only put so many feeds in your RSS until it becomes unworkable. Now the main page of Google Blog Search organizes blog posts into clusters, which are groups about the same story or event. Look inside a cluster, and you'll find a huge selection of blogger perspectives, and be able to watch as they gain momentum.
