Would You Like A Slashtag With That? Blekko Begins Powering Topix Search

Topix, the largely under-the-radar platform for local news, information, and influence, has been aggregating local news and community discussions for nearly 7 years. Over this time, the platform has quietly grown to over 13 million monthly visitors, according to Quantcast. It's now aggregating local content from more than 50K sources and offers more than 360K edited news pages. Topix has become a respectable web property, which is why today's announcement that it will be partnering with young search engine, Blekko, seems like an interesting move. Blekko only launched publicly back in November of last year, so the human-curated, slash-tagging search engine is still very much an unestablished entity.
