Hey Sean,

I had 5 minutes to myself this month from work and found krugle.com [1], a code-search engine.

Ever hear of it? Worth blogging about?

Nope, I haven't heard of that particular one (and I tried it, pretty sweet), but I have heard of a few other ones, such as koders [2], Programming Langauge Research Engine [3] and even Google's [4] Code Search [5].

Now, Programming Language Research Engine [6] is based upon Google Co-op [7], which allows you to make a highly targetted search engine—I wonder how many of the other source code engines are based upon that?
