Blinklist is Lacking in Search No Longer Lacking in Search

I’ve previously reviewed BlinkList and I would like to congratulate them on their additions to the service. They’ve added an easy to access comparison between you and your fans and friends. They’ve also added a profile that shows up on your bookmarks, though mine doesn’t seem to show up (do I have to log out?). Good job. Keep up the good work.
One of the few things they lack, though, is a decent search engine.
Currently their search engine only searches tags. Good if you want to find web 2.0 services or stuff about George W. Bush. Not really good if you want to find that bookmark of yours way back about “How to destroy the Earth” (what I want versus what I get)
If I’m going to have 250+ bookmarks, I’m going to have to be able to search their titles, descriptions, and possibly the content of the page. Not just tags.
Update! BlinkList has added full text search! Yes!
Good job on the tag searching engine though. AND, OR, and NOT are replaced by ‘+’ ‘|’ and ‘!’ Excellent.

Thanks for all of your feedback and suggestions on BlinkList. I completely agree with you that our search feature is seriously lacking! However, rest assured that we are working on it and that we hope to offer full text search in the not too distant future. Mike

That would be excellent. Hope to see it soon.
