Buzz has got a brand new blog

Intelliseek has introduced BlogPulse, a free online search and tracking tool that measures and ranks opinions and “buzz" about key issues, people, phrases and links that occur daily in more than a million Internet blogs.

The company says BlogPulse serves as an effective research tool for Internet users, consumers, the media, observers, risk and reputation managers, pundits, politicians--anyone interested in tracking issues, personalities, trends and rumors that are circulating on the Internet, often before they hit mainstream media.

Content is updated and ranked daily, so BlogPulse.com can be used to determine which blogs attract and generate the most traffic and to gauge interest in users’ own blogs.

The BlogPulse home page offers:

• links to each day’s key trends, phrases, people and links--updated daily;

• a search engine to find specific information in blogs;

• a showcase search tool that graphically charts and compares key issues, trends, people and phrases over time; and

• a BlogPulse blog that mixes editorial content and trend-mining tools to provide interesting tidbits to site visitors.
