i just some good news from Alireza:

Google has launched its Blog search service, becoming the first major search engine to offer full-blown blog and feed search capabilities. Google's new service is available both at http://google.com/blogsearch and http://search.blogger.com/. Google Blog search scans content posted to blogs and feeds in virtually real-time.
