Feeling advanced? Some tips for searching the ‘Sphere.

Wanted to share some thought on how best to search the blogosphere with Sphere.

Feeling advanced? Try our “advanced syntax.” If you’re an old hand at Web search, you’ll have no trouble getting the most out of Sphere. We support quotes for phrase searching, Boolean operators (AND, OR, NOT), minus for exclusion, and a few additional features too. You can access a full list of ideas on our Tips page.

There are oodles of ways to put these features together, keeping you entertained for hours. Or, if you’re so inclined, you can use these features to do some serious blogosphere mining.

Please send us any hot search tips that we can share with fellow users.

The ‘Sphere is now available on your Mac’s Dashboard

We’re excited to announce a Sphere widget for Mac OS X Dashboard. Now you’re just a function key away from searching the ‘Sphere on your Mac. The widget displays up to 3 results with direct links to great blogs, and lets you click through to Sphere.com for more results and related content.

It’s great-looking and easy to use, get it here.
