Google To Create "Blog" Search; Potentially Remove From Main

Posted by Hemos on from the about-freakin'-time dept.

Skyshadow writes "Google, search engine of choice for pretty much everyone, has announced that it will begin a seperate index for blogs and remove them from the normal index, handling them instead in much the same way as their usenet archives. This will hopefully put an end to the recent difficulties locating primary source material among the mountains of blogs which are clogging the ratings system." There's been comments from elsewhere that says they won't be removing them - but that remains to be seen.

    for my manager to read a book on the new "blogging" phenomenon and ask us to incorporate it into our daily workflow. Maybe then I can shove this fish up his arse.

    I hate hate HATE the word "Blog". It's weblog. The word is WEBLOG. It makes me nuts that the drooling masses have now standardized this ridiculous mutation of the perfect word for something into what is in actuality a comic-book sound effect.

    To the person who coined this brilliance, fuck you. To all of you simpletons that have adopted its use, fuck you more.
