Tim Swanson, who came up pretty high in my blogmatcher results, somehow discovered my blog and blogmatcher and wrote about it in his blog.
On semi-related news, I've spent the last few hours trying to come up with a database driven version of blogmatcher, with hopes that I'd get better performance. I got Postgres up and running, but as of yet, things don't look too promising. Searches are taking as long (or possibly longer) than the current flat-file based version, and I'm starting to think that either I've got the whole database schema wrong, or it's just one of those problems where using a database doesn't help.
For anyone who's interested, the relations table (linking blogs to links) has over 60,000 entries, there are around 60,000 links, and a little over 1000 blogs.
