Michael,

thanks for pointing that out - Damien did mention it in the post I linked to but it merits stating explicitly and i forgot to do that in my post - d’oh!

it should be called Google RSS Search, not Blog Search. I get Irish Examiner RSS feeds in the results. They don’t do blogs.

It’s nice to see us immediately on #1 spot for our “money terms” in blogsearch too.
