Technorati does Boolean

Filed under: General, blogs, tags, search

Technorati now does full boolean searching…it already had OR, but now has added AND, NOT…no more hacks.

This is great news as now you can drill down to just what you want…I noticed boolean works in both the normal search and tag search.

The only thing I find wierd is that when I’m on the tag search page and I click options is provides 2 other links, “posts containing this text”, and “links to this URL”…now if you click on one of these the tab stays on tags, when it should move to the search tab, as you can’t perform these type of searches in the tag mode.

Although as mentioned before it would be great to search on a single URL in the tag mode (especially with Boolean)…then you could browse a category or tag from a blog, or even search within a the tag or category of a single blog.
