The Return of Free Ice Cream
Brad DeLong remarked a while ago that the overhaul at Technorati seems to have undermined its usefulness as a blog tool. Its newfound slowness and unpredictability caused me to stop putting Technorati links on all of my posts. Via Brad and Barry Ritholtz, we discover that Google is now a purveyor of this free ice cream, and though the storefront is different, the product is quite delicious. Give either link a test run:
Google interface at blogsearch.google.com
Blogger interface at search.blogger.com
Has anyone found the code that allows us to link back to the search results for a specific page on a blog?

link:http://bigpicture.typepad.com/comments/2005/09/google_kneecaps.html
Here's the results:

Google Blog Search: When to Use Full Feed vs. Excerpts

“Is this the death knell for Technorati, et. al? “ – asks Charlene about Google’s entry to the Blog Search space. I suspect I know the long-term answer for that,
but for now let’s look at what Technorati’s own Niall Kennedy thinks: ...

Pretty cool, and as you would expect from Google, very simple . . .
That's the first part. The second part is referencing the resulting page in the blog itself. That looks like this, inside the <"a"> tag:
href = "http://blogsearch.google.com/blogsearch?hl=en&q=link:http://bigpicture.typepad.com/comments/2005/09/google_kneecaps.html&btnG=Search+Blogs"
