Twingly is a blog search engine, similar to Technorati, but a spam free one and aimed at the European market.

One of the ways this is achieved is a social rating to the blog posts by inliks - the more popular the blog post measured by the number of other blogs linking to it, the higher it will rank in search results.

In some cases the results can be unexpected. As Twingy comments:

“The list is based on the data we have in our index. It’s why we say it’s from “our point of view”. We have, for example, better index for Europe overall than for US blogs which makes the list quite unexpected in some cases."

Twingly's flagship product is Twingly Blog Stream, a service that shows which bloggers have written about each article on the newspaper's website.

Currently Twingly Blog Stream service is on 75 major media sites in 11 countries all around Europe.
