The wonderful ways of Google
Posted on February 10, 2008
For once I am not being sarcastic about Google. Google own blogger.com and its hosting service, blogspot. I am getting the impression that there is some direct tie-up between Google’s general archives and what appears on blogspot. Maybe the search service actually incorporates the blogspot archives into its own archives. As a result, anything one posts on a blogspot blog seems to be accessible to a Google search within minutes of it being put up.
That is not so with other blogging services. My occasional rambles on my personal blog (which is hosted on Australian servers) take days to appear in Google search results. That difference could be one reason to recommend blogger.com as a blogging service. Blogspot’s famous service outages don’t seem to happen so often these days either. They finally seem to have mastered the art of innovating without crashing the entire system.

Its pretty immediate here as well, and if you pick the “news” tab for your post in the category area, it will appear on google news searches.
