Justia Blawgsearch is a search engine for legal blogs. Blawgsearch also tracks and ranks the popularity of the blogs, search terms and blawg post tags. While going through the site, I also noticed that Justia recently launched a free database of federal district court cases that they put together using Google's hosted Business Custom Search Engine for the full text search. This is one of Google’s many search apps. The blog entry about this (http://onward.justia.com/ on 9/30/07) mentions that “Google is now OCRing PDF image files, so even PDF files that have images of scanned documents will be, in most cases, full text indexable and searchable (just like the OCR of Google's Book Search).”
