Google Blog Search
Google has launched their Blog Search function. You can search your blog’s URL and it seems to pick up more than Technorati or The Ecosystem. Problem is that a lot of what it picks up are spam blogs, a few of which link to me apparently.
Someone needs to stop these spam blogs. Spammers have already made my referral logs useless. And, until I got Spam Karma 2, had made trackbacks useless. I hope they don’t make the various blog tracking tools useless as well. Heck, we’ve got political hacks who are doing a fine job of that.

Agreed. The spam (both referrer and comment type) that flood my blog drive me insane, not only does NONE of it actually make it onto the blog (I’ve had comment moderation on for yonks, and trackbacks were never turned on), but still the spam floods in.
My referrer logs are next to useless, as filled as they are with prozac, porn and finance urls and I have in fact turned to on of the free referrer systems just to get an accurate read on who is visiting from where.
Grrrrrr….
