Thing #3 Blog Searches

I spent some time this last week exploring Technorati and Google Blog Search, comparing features, ease of use, relevance of search results, etc. I found Google much much easier to use than Technorati. Technorati seems to be raved about as the most used and useful blog search tools, and I'm sure it is, but I found it not as transparent as I would have liked.

When using Google's Blog search I received about 4,446,929 for image transfer compared to only 6,250 results on Technorati. I Narrowed the search even further by placing parenthesis around both words "image transfer" and only received 176 results in Technorati. Most of the blogs I found had this term used in the document, but did not focus specifically on this topic.

However, the videos available in Technorati were very useful as most of them were DIY tutorials on creating image transfers.

I then decided to take a look at Google videos, and found that it came up with 28 videos on "image transfers" some of which were the same, and most of which were on topic.
