This one was frustrating. I get that it's purpose is to search blogs and find out what the popular conversations out there are. I did the search exercise searching "learning 2.0" in blogs and tags.

Maybe this would be a good way to find blog feeds you want to subscribe to. Or just find out what people are saying about a particular topic.
