yes I noticed Bloglines.. giving me this feature!! |
"Ask: Blogs & Feeds"
At least they got that much right! As I've said time after time, just because something has a feed doesn't mean it's a blog!
I actually like how the "Subscribe" dropdown option in the results lets you select Google, Yahoo, etc. as your feed reader rather than just Bloglines. Not sure how much I'd use that though. (Why would I subscribe to a feed based purely on viewing the snippet in the results?) This is more useful for the "Feeds" tab though.
I wonder how they decide what goes under the "News" tab. At the moment, it looks like this includes manually selected sources. |
From the Bloglines/Ask Team (aka the pimped out search engine!!) . Take a look at the ad
"We now display RSS enclosures with type="application/x-shockwave-flash". "
