In addition to labeling blog posts, we also did an analysis of the accuracy of the labeling. There's a link to the course paper here: http://www.eecs.umich.edu/~cscott/past_courses/eecs545/projects/ We attempted to label blogs based on a mixture of post content, ingoing and outgoing links. Results weren't that promising, but we made a couple of design decisions that were probably responsible for this. For one thing, we aggregated all posts for each blog and looked at the blog-level leaning. If you're interested in any of the data or code, feel free to contact me.
