Finding Blogs In The Social Web
September 19, 2008
Recently I was conducting a search for blogs. In a contest between search engines and the Social Web, social easily beat search. Also I spent far less time searching using social networking online than I did searching with keywords.
Here are my results from searching for blogs in a particular industry:
Search engines = 25
Social media = 100
Conducting social networking to find the blogs was much more effective, especially after I found a site detailing the top one hundred blogs in the industry. LinkedIn was the winner.
