I just wonder, how many of you are using the search at blogger.com to search weblogs? I sometimes do. Most of us would like to know, say, what are the first hand comments from diners, software users, and travelers etc before we visit a restaurant, buy software and travel to a certain destination. We think that the comments on those personal sites should be more impartial then coverage from commercial gourmet magazines, software reviews and travelers’ guides. Although there are now some biased notes on the weblogs, I still think that blogs from others give me a lot of information. But there is one thing I don’t like in blogger.com. The search there seldom cache the files and the number of missing links, either due to deleted post or protected post, are far more common then a regular search. I cannot find the information I want as easily as in google. This is quite strange, as blogger.com is a subsidiary of google, why are they not using the same search engine. I wonder if any of you have the same problems with that handicapped search.

I don't use blogger search as much as I would do even msn search. Of course, the main search engine I use is Google search. I think blogger search is not exactly the same as google dot com search. Output seems to be a little different though google is the search that power the blogger as well.

If I use blogger search at all, I use it for searching blog itself. I will type someone's name and search if he has blogspot blog or not. Otherwise, I hardly use this search.
