MoBlogs indexed in Blog Search Engine

You may have seen them.



You may have heard about them.



You might even have one.



They are moBlogs, and they are a fast growing phenomenon, on the burgeoning blogging scene.



According to Loren Baker of Blog Search Engine, a moblog can be defined this way:

MoBlog stands for mobile weblog which consists of content posted to the Internet from a mobile or portable device, such as a cellular phone or PDA. According to Wikipedia, much of the earliest development of moblogs occurred in Japan, among the first countries in the world where camera phones (portable phones with built-in cameras) were widely commercially available.

To keep up with this fast growing number of MoBlogs being added to the blogosphere, Blog Search Engine Directory and IceRocket Search have teamed up to bring MoBlogs into the search community.



The partnership between Blog Search Engine and IceRocket is designed to include searches for MoBlogs for the following reasons:

...bring cell phone pic blogs, or MoBlogs, into the search engine world with a new search feature which produces image results of the latest MoBlogs images available. Blog Search Engine has over 10,000 blogs indexed in its blog directory and this new feature gives them a jump on other cutting edge search engines in the blogging world. The partnership between the two companies utilizes IceRocket search technology to serve search results from TextAmerica blog entries - a MoBlog only blog hosting service.



While Google and Yahoo are trying to accumulate the largest web image search index, bloggers and site publishers are finding other targets for web search. TextAmerica's MoBlog service offers some of the latest and most rapidly updated images online. If one is looking for some online pics of a current event or buzz worthy topic, it makes much more sense to search via MoBlogs than 3 month old image search engine indexes.

Blog Search Engine owner Loren Baker said, "IceRocket's MoBlog search technology brings a new dimension to the Blog Search Engine which we never had before, we're a much better blog searching solution now with our new search functionality."



IceRocket CEO Blake Rhodes continued, "Blog search is incredibly important, sometimes you like to know what other people think besides the traditional media. Besides, MoBlogs are fun, they really let you see what others are up to."



For those who are not entirely sure about the background of IceRocket Search, it was one of the investments made by blogger and Dallas Mavericks of the NBA owner Mark Cuban.



Bloggers are well advised to submit their blogs to Blog Search Engine for inclusion.



The addition of MoBlog searches to the IceRocket index, could help propel that search engine into the mainstream of search, at least for bloggers.



Expect more similar partnerships in the future as blogs continue to carve out a very large and highly visible niche on the internet.



Blogs are a growing force, and that force just got quite a bit larger.
