Of course, I could say the same thing about Google, thought goog\'s clustering is better.<br><br>My other thought: funny that you suggest "small is good" - given that one of the primary critiques of 2.0 is that many startups are just "features" not businesses.

It\'s an idea the resonates with Dave Winer\'s unConference idea that the smartest people are often in the audience.<br><br>Technorati is a collection of smart people that determined an opening in search and then focused on that area (blog search). Of course, a focused effort by any well funded company can create a response but hopefully, "time to market" and brand still have market effects. Wouldn\'t it be great to see the Technorati team profit from their efforts and NOT just see Google fix their blog search service and watch Technorati do that slow slide into irrelevance?<br>Innovation deserves some rewards and not just to be copied and made superflous.<br><br>I\'m glad to see you trumpeting the little guy and not just asking the users of such services to be patient and expect MS or Google to fix their difficiencies.<br><br>"Innovation happens elsewhere" is the corrollary to:<br><br>"You can\'t hire all the really smart people" and the basic essential ingredient of successful start-ups:<br><br>"They are fueled by the intense passion of people who are risking everything to make their company successful." As a by-product they get the risk taker that gambles on their own talent to our perform the well funded, PhD driven mega-corporations. Yahoo, Google, Apple, Sun and MS had start-up phases where they exemplified these attributes. They are the model that drives the inmnovator to believe the effort is worth the price in perosnal terms... long hours, damaged relationships or no relationships outside of work.<br><br>(PS - for a start-up, being acquiured is a way to cash in but typically the end of the passion... see Blogger, Flickr, Reddit, Weblogs Inc., and others as examples. The risk takers pocket the rewards and (typically) sneak out to do it (maybe) one more time.<br>Like Evan, Winer, and many others.</div>\

And thanks, turning up authority did get rid of a lot of the spam.<br><br>But in the end, it didn\'t really seem to matter.  Try searching for "french elections" in both search engines.  Or one of my original searches, "Half Life 2".  Multi-word searches don\'t really seem to work very well.  Among other things, I think Google\'s got term proximity valuation cranked way higher, and it helps.  All the articles in Google are relevant while close to none are relevant in Technorati search.<br><br>Plus, ".net" doesn\'t even register as a term, so I can\'t do my typical code-by-example searches.<br><br>Each search I\'ve mentioned is just a random topic, not something I\'d necessarily really search on, so maybe I can\'t judge it until I /need/ to use it.  Still, the lessons that Google has learned over the years of query interpretation are very evident in their results.  I truly wish you luck since another good search source is always welcome!</div>\
