Blogger team has added a  new feature, this time in user's profile pages. They have added  universal search of the interests, hobbies, etc. similar to orkut's universal search.This way bloggers can find bloggers blogging with similar interests.Furthermore, the rankings in the result page would be in order of most freshly updated blogs instead of popular blogs which is somewhat like Technorati search which will sort out so called "lazy bloggers".So go ahead, share your interests... you may start from my profile
