PS: Could somebody please do the decent thing, and link to this posting... if only to have an example on the same page?

Would be interested to hear the conclusions of any such test, Harry. But my guess is, Google's Blogsearch will be much, much faster. I still use Bloglines as my RSS reader of choice, but I'm aware that it can often take quite some time for new material to register. Meanwhile, Google's indexing seems pretty close to real time.

Interesting -- I'm using a Bloglines search to do this at TellThemWhatYouThink. I may have to plug the same query into both and see which one returns better results

Thanks Matthew... my mistake. The puffbox.com page template never actually defined a tag! I'm clearly an idiot. Now it's fixed, Opera's happy.

Isn't working in Opera here, I'm afraid (but all the examples on Google's site do).
