How do I find other blogs in my categories?
-
Is there a way to find other people’s blogs that share your own blog’s categories? For example, one of my categories is “frugal living” and I would like to find other people who also have frugal-living-related posts.
Please excuse me if this is a basic, no-brainer question but I haven’t been able to find the answer yet.
Thanks.

Worpress.com has category/tag pages where the posts we write and assign categories to are displayed.
Here are examples
http://wordpress.com/tag/ethical-living/
http://wordpress.com/tag/green-living/
http://wordpress.com/tag/simple-life/
http://wordpress.com/tag/simple-living -
Thanks. So, are the “categories” I’ve assigned my posts the same as the tags of which you speak?

If you click the categories in the post (either in the header or footer, depending on the theme), you will be taken to a global tag page for that category.
Please note, however, if your category is new to the system, it takes a while for it to show up; you might get a message something like “That category does not exist”
Edit: yes, tags and categories mean the same thing here

Mine show up almost instantaneously. I check them after I post. Also note that you can browse the wordpress.com category/tag pages at this link http://wordpress.com/tags/ and browsing can be helpful when you are deciding which categories/tags to assign to a post. :)
