Charting Seattle's blog interest

One of the best blogs about blogging turns us onto this neat new trick from Technorati -- the weblog search engine.

Here are two 'live' charts of references to 'seattle' and 'portland' in blogs tracked by Technorati. Portland, we got you beat, sucka! Really, we're not going to gloat about the head-to-head thing -- in both charts you can see the growing swell of blogging in general. It's especially cool to be able to track this swell in relation to what we've been writing about.
