I'm an avid user of Google Blog Search's link command feature. It helps me keep track who is linking to my blog posts. It works like this:

http://blogsearch.go...=...om&as_qdr=d

I limit it by day, so I can check daily...

In any event, Google recently changed it to not just search the RSS of the content but the whole page. So now, even if someone doesn't mention me in their content, but they have me on their blog roll, it shows up.

Very frustrating, cause I only want to see mentions in the body content come up.

Anyone else notice this?

I never heard about this tool before. Just tried it and it seems to provide interesting information about more than blogs.

Thanks for the tip.
