Because it is.Wait.Here comes the cake.The demo is briefly suspended.Technorati Inc.,launched less than three years ago,is one of several sites seeking to overlay organizing principles upon the fast-growing tendrils of the blogosphere.Until now a Technorati search for "goldfish" spat out a series of recent blog posts that mention goldfish,regardless of what the blog actually focuses on.The new search allows users to search blogs by subject matter.
