Search Google Profiles

Google recently published a Sitemap file containing the URLs of public Google Account profiles. Now, they've also started to offer a special profile search. You can access it from the bottom of your Google profile, or you can enter your keywords in the box below:

Note the service is flaky at the moment and was down for me during many tries. Sometimes, hitting refresh on a failed query made it work the second time, though. (Also note that a crawler I recently wrote found more profiles for e.g. the keyword "blogoscoped", so it might be that Google does not go through all data fields with their search.)
