What is the best way to search for something on an obscure blog?

Asked by srmorgan (6773points) December 9th, 2011

A colleague states that a parent has been posting (bad-mouthing) the Principal of my child’s school on an un-named blog.

A quick Google search with the name of the school and the parent’s last name reveals nothing.

Are there search engines that might be indexing obscure blogs? Is Yahoo search or Bing a better bet for digging up something like this?

Google has a special search engine for searching blogs. It’s here.

Have you tried searching for the Principle’s name?

Many blogs are private (not viewable by the public), and sometimes those that are visible are not under a person’s real name. (If someone searched my real name, for example, they would not find my blog.)
