Among the news stories on the blogosphere today is the release of a new blog search engine by Sphere. I thought I'd give it a try, and with the widget made especially for us Typepad users, you can too (see right column and repeat the phrase 'viral marketing' before using). Here's the story:
You enter some keywords and we show you related posts, blogs, profiles, related news, photos, books, and podcasts. Sort your results by relevance or time, refine the date range, all with dropdowns, right on the results page.
And the coolest feature is the free bookmarklet you can click n' drop into your Firefox, IE or Safari browser. Next time you're reading a news story and are curious what bloggers might be saying on the same subject, Sphere It, and you'll go to a search page with posts related to the content you were just reading about. A great way to explore the blogosphere.
