I've seen blog.google a few times. Things like "google.com" and "gmail.com" are established brands; switching that to "search.google" or "gmail.google" isn't really going to improve anything for anyone. I guess it's kinda cute for blog.google, but other than that it's pretty useless. A bunch of companies bought these brand TLDs only to never use it and then abandon them a few years later. Probably a "zomg this is a new internets thing and if we don't do all the new internets things it we'll be left behind on the internets, and we can't be left behind on in the internets!!!11"-type affair.
