 I made this change to my blog a while back, and I've found it to be a lot
 more useful. Basically, it changes the incoming links to use Google
 BlogSearch instead of Technorati for searching. Google BlogSearch is a lot
 faster to respond, less prone to total failure (which happens to
 Technorati seemingly once every couple weeks or so), and seems to return a
 lot more timely results. I can see who's linking to me much more quickly.

 Patch included.
