This command uses google's domain search as a workaround. SYNTAX: blogss -where BLOG_PREFIX -what QUERY EXAMPLE: blogss -where flum -what cyborg ...searches all of flum.blogspot.com for "cyborg." Note that this is in contrast to blogspot's native search feature, which DOESN'T WORK: http://flum.blogspot…
