Technorati tags: OR search

Filed under: General, tags, search

Technorati Weblog notifies that Technorati tags (blog categories) now has the boolean OR functionality…cool…but where is AND, or NOT, do they come in the same package.

From an earlier post:

“…what about having a search mechanism similar to CTRL-F, where it will search according to the string of characters…so if I search RSS, I will get returns for every tag that has the characters RSS.”

So I would like to search for tags first, and then choose the tags I want to put in my query.

…actually as I mentioned I would like to search for certain character strings in tags.

So if I search for the characters “rss”, it will return a list of tags:

eg.
RSS
RSSreader
RSSaggreator
RSStools
RSSfeeds
RSSaddons
RSSmetrics
…and so on

…also include stemming for plurals
…also include symbols (”:”, “_”, “-”)

Then out of this list I check the boxes for the tags I want to include in my search query (and use the OR, AND, or NOT function)
