The new TechMeme killer

Google has just launched a new homepage for Google Blog Search.

Michael Cohen, Product Manager at Google writes:

Adapting some of the technology pioneered by Google News, we're now showing categories on the left side of the website and organizing the blog posts within those categories into clusters, which are groupings of posts about the same story or event. Grouping them in clusters lets you see the best posts on a story or get a variety of perspectives. When you look within a cluster, you'll find a collection of the most interesting and recent posts on the topic, along with a timeline graph that shows you how the story is gaining momentum in the blogosphere.

Will the new Google Blog Search be the Techmeme killer?
