  The Search looking into all blogs on wordpress.com doesn’t search in the url of blogs.
  e.g. http://en.search.wordpress.com/?q=goatec returns “0 results” when the blog with this title exists. I’ve checked for some other blog urls too. It’s a bug!

  No, it’s not a bug. The global search searches tags and categories, not urls.

  No, it’s not a bug. The global search searches tags and categories, not urls. Also, you have a typo either in the search or your username. Goaetc or goatec?

  Typo only in the post, sorry for the mistake.
  http://en.search.wordpress.com/?q=goaetc does not return the blog.
  The search looks into the posts too (example:http://en.search.wordpress.com/?q=observantbystander). I think it should look in the url also.

  It doesn’t, though.
