  • New & Improved Search!

    We’ve upgraded our search engine to support real time results and remove spammy posts!

    Over the last couple months, an intrepid team of Xanga engineers (led by justin, with help from dan and jon) has completely revamped the search feature … we’ve been testing it for a while, and so now we’re announcing a new and improved Xanga search:


    What’s new and improved about it?

    Faster - it used to take a whole day for new posts or edits to show up in search results – now it takes just minutes
    Much Less Spam- search used to be riddled with posts from spammy accounts – now you should see almost no spam
    Trending (beta) – we’ve also added a list of topics that Xangans have been blogging about a lot lately. We’re still working on this one, but we thought we’d add it to search results as a beta feature just so you could all check it out.

    We’ve got some more search updates on the way, but in the meantime please try out the new search and let us know what you think:

    Thanks!
