Googles Blog Search Gets Some Updates

Google announced a few days ago that if you use Google's Blog search from with in Blogger you will notice some changes.  Apparently that means it won't effect your view if you use Google's Stand Alone Blog Search engine.  Here is a part of the Google announcement,

"new functionality for the Blogger look 'n feel, notably the date-restrict options in the sidebar. For example, "earthquake san francisco" restricted to March 1st will tell you about the earthquake that just happened, and "snow south lake tahoe" restricted to Feb18-28 reveals some pretty excited people (myself included ;)."

To read the rest of this announcement check out the Blogger Buzz Post on it.  To me this looks mostly cosmetic and I don't think it will have much effect on over all rankings except for the fact that users will have more control over how they search.  The key like most such changes though will be how many searchers will use the filtering methods?
