A new subscription option
I've added a new option to the subscription list for BlogWatcher. (Thanks to the "other blogwatcher" for the idea.)
In the "Service" column, a new option has been added: Technorati Tagged content. Technorati is a blog search service. When bloggers write entries using some blog software (not this one, yet) they can assign "tags" or keywords that describe their posting. Technorati allows you to search based on those tags.
The addition I've made allows you to make use of that from inside BlogWatcher. If you're interested in the Astros, for instance, then you could create a subscription where the Service is 'Technorati Tagged content' and the 'target' is Astros. You can of course create multiple subscriptions if you want to monitor multiple keywords. (I don't think there's any way yet to combine a search, so that it finds articles that contain multiple keywords)
Give it a try.
(I'm manually adding the "magic codes" required to get this posting tagged by Technorati. So hopefully, by the time you read this, you'd be able to see it there, tagged under blogwatcher, blog, PHP and RSS)
