04/23/2004 04:22 PM
St. Clair Software has released HistoryHound 1.0, which searches through your history and bookmarks in Safari and returns matches ranked by relevance. It uses the "V-Twin" fast-search technology found in Mac OS X v10.3 "Panther" to return matches and includes a built-in browser that renders search results in a window when you click on them. You can perform simple searches, as well as sophisticated Boolean or include/exclude searches, and a hot key summons the search window when you need it. Pricing is US$19.95. HistoryHound requires Mac OS X v.10.3 "Panther" or higher. It currently supports Safari, but St. Clair notes that "other browsers will be added in future releases."

History of Web Search from 1998 to 2005


History of Web Search from 1998 to 2005 04/15/2005 06:25 PM
Jan Pedersen at the Infonortics Search Engines ConferenceSearch has grown substantially, gone from a few million documents to at least five billion, at least 400 million queries per day worldwide, hundreds of thousands of machines engaged. The relevance, as defined by user search satisfaction, has become good (enough).The very first web search engines were fairly simple word matching, the later generations more tuned for relevance. They used techniques like proximity weighting, anchor text (links pointing to the page), and incoming links (later including Google page ranks). Note that the process of constructing a webwide search index is a very complex activity: lots of network traffic, analysis, reads and writes.User Interface in the 1998 version of Infoseek are much the same as 2005 search results. The main changes are a "dynamic abstract" -- matching search terms in page context, and cached pages.Other changes - targeted advertising successful business model, search can be a priority. Moore's law and a switch from big iron servers to relatively small servers in vast farms.

How to Pickup Women Easily


How to Pickup Women Easily 05/21/2004 09:49 PM

Sorry.  I was just wondering why there aren't more posts like this which would be more useful to geeks than waka waka about blogging or poo poo about Bush.  To avoid disappointing you altogether, here is a golden rule I learned when I was single:

Don't ask questions that could be answered with a No.

Until she got to know you well enough to make an informed decision about you, stick with the rule and ask other types of questions.  If she gets that twinkle in her eyes, check your wallet to see if you need to make a run to the drug store.  If she gets that pestered look, walk away happy knowing that she wasn't your type after all.  Delusions can be useful when you are single.  ;-)

If you are a complete loser, stick with the rule until she calls the cop or makes a run for the door.  If you are a persistent bastard, keep at it until she gets a restraining order against you.  If you are a clueless idiot, follow her to Texas and congratulate her for getting a gun license.

If a butterfly in Beijing can destroy Kansas, this post has a good chance of triggering a population explosion.

Flash SWT Plugin


Flash SWT Plugin 01/22/2004 05:06 PM

When I changed web server at the end of last month, I didn't have time to move non-blog related pages and files.  Until I do, I'll post on my blog whenever someone ask for them.

Today it was the Flash SWT Plugin which I wrote long time ago.  The plugin basically allows you to play Flash animation within SWT applications and tools.  Here is a screenshot.

ZIP file with source code:

co m.docuverse.swt.flash-0.4.zip (148.48 KB)

There is really only one class you need to learn about: FlashPlayer. Below is a code snippet that will play a Flash movie.

import com.docuverse.swt.flash.FlashPlayer;
...
FlashPlayer player = new FlashPlayer(container);
player.loadMovie(0, “http://somewhere.com/movie.swf“);
...

For a complete example, scan the FlashPlayerView class source code.

GetXML Plugin for Movable Type: Ouch, this is a good plugin. There's no limit to what you can do with this.

This Movable Type plugin implements a set of template tags for retrieving data in XML format and displaying the data on your MT-generated pages. [...] The plugin will work with any well-formed XML document that can be retrieved via an HTTP GET request.

Connect a template with this stuff to the MT-Rebuild script and you could retrieve XML on a schedule, format it up into HTML, then include it all over your site, all with Movable Type. The utility of it is giving me a cramp.

Update: This plugin isn’t needed. As Neil pointed out, there’s a built-in MT tag that already does this. Somehow I overlooked that when I was writing the plugin. So ignore all this drivel...

Here’s a quickie plugin to close out the year.

Jeff Nichols asked, "Does anyone know of an easy way to get a current entry count (post count) for Movable Type?" A quick look for a plugin that would do this turned up nothing so I whipped one up for him.

To install it, download EntryCount.zip, unzip it, and upload EntryCount.pl to your plugins directory.

To use it, add the tag <MTEntryCount> to your template. The tag will will output the number of published entries to your blog. Draft entries are not included in the count, and only entries from the current blog are counted. Typical usage would be something like...

You see, we're working with other browser vendors to extend the plugin API to add scriptability. See this link for more information. This means you can obviously execute native code from within any WebKit application's Web pages through the use of scriptable plugins.
