Spidering Hacks
11/01/2003 12:57 PMThe latest book in the O'Reilly Hacks series, "Spidering Hacks,"
(written by Kevin "Morbus Iff" Hemenway and Tara "ResearchBuzz"
Calishain) is out. It's the site-scraper's bible, with 100 tips and
tricks for sucking in data from the Web.
Spidering Hacks takes you to the next level in Internet data
retrieval--beyond search engines--by showing you how to create spiders
and bots to retrieve information from your favorite sites and data
sources. You'll no longer feel constrained by the way host sites think
you want to see their data presented--you'll learn how to scrape and
repurpose raw data so you can view in a way that's meaningful to you.
Written for developers, researchers, technical assistants, librarians,
and power users, Spidering Hacks provides expert tips on spidering and
scraping methodologies. You'll begin with a crash course in spidering
concepts, tools (Perl, LWP, out-of-the-box utilities), and ethics (how
to know when you've gone too far: what's acceptable and unacceptable).
Next, you'll collect media files and data from databases. Then you'll
learn how to interpret and understand the data, repurpose it for use
in other applications, and even build authorized interfaces to
integrate the data into your own content.

The Internet puts a wealth of information at your fingertips, and
all you have to know is how to find it. Google is your ultimate
research tool--a search engine that indexes more than 2.4 billion web
pages, in more than 30 languages, conducting more than 150 million
searches a day.
The more you know about Google, the better you are at pulling data off
the Web. You've got a cadre of techniques up your sleeve--tricks
you've learned from practice, from exchanging ideas with others, and
from plain old trial and error--but you're always looking for better
ways to search.
It's the "hacker" in you: not the troublemaking kind, but the kind who
really drives innovation by trying new ways to get things done. If
this is you, then you'll find new inspiration (and valuable tools,
too) in Google Hacks from O'Reilly's new Hacks Series.

OCLC
Research Software Contest
“In celebration of libraries and
their heritage of technological innovation, OCLC Research is
sponsoring a software contest to encourage innovation in the use of
web-based services for libraries.
Prize
- $2,500 in
cash
- Visit with OCLC Online Computer Library Center Inc., in
Dublin, Ohio
- Potentially have your code incorporated in OCLC
services for libraries
The challenge
OCLC is
providing a set of bi
bliographic records extracted from WorldCat plus a
set of services:
You may also use Open
WorldCat, either by simply incorporating links to publicly
accessible records or by enrolling in Open WorldCat's Partner Access program. Contact us
if you wish to discuss enrolling in this program for the purposes of
this contest.
Your mission is to write a program that does
something interesting and innovative with the WorldCat data using at
least one of the OCLC-provided services. You must submit a working
prototype.
Part of your job is to convince us of why your
program is interesting and why it will help libraries and/or library
users; other than that, you're free to implement whatever strikes your
fancy.”
And they were smart enough to ask Jon Udell to be a judge
– good call! I hope we see some really cool stuff come out of
this, in more than just a proof-of-concept way. Makes me wish I could
actually program. Entries are due by midnight on May 15. If
you’re entering, good luck!

Mac OS X Panther Hacks
08/11/2004 06:15 AM
I finally got round to reading my copy of the wonderful O'Reilly Mac
OS X Panther Hacks book, which, like all of the hacks books, is
clever, informative, well-organised and useful; this one has the
additional merit of having been co-written by my pal
Rael Dornfest, who edits the line, and
is witty, silly and very imaginative indeed. The hacks assembled in
the text range from surprising things you can do with iTunes and iCal
to hacking AppleScript to making OS X cooperate with perl and Python,
but my favorite of all is the iOscillate: an iSight camera mounted to
the top of a de-bladed oscillating desk-fan, so that the fan sweeps
the iSight back and forth in a steady, 180-degree arc, covering all
those seated around a table or in a conference. The hack is truly
worthy of the appellation "hack" -- it's ingenious, funny, and
actually useful in a seriously bent way.

Google hacks are for real
Google hacks are for real
08/06/2004 09:40 AMGoogle hacks are for real, regardless of what some uber-hackers may
think or say. They can produce passwords, user IDs, credit card
numbers, Social Security numbers, bank account numbers and routing
codes, and more. They can also be used to troll for vulnerabilities.
One quick example: using one of the simplest Google advanced operators
in combination with another operator, I quickly found a number of
Microsoft IIS 6.0 Authentication Manager pages exposed to the Internet
on Army, Navy, state, and federal agency sites. In fact, finding the
sites proved to be much easier than alerting them to the
vulnerability.
