It offers multiple search features like the ability to search images
and news groups.However it's true power lies in it's powerful commands
that can be used and misused.I am writing this article on the basis of
my experience using google and trying out ideas when i am bored.Now
enough of lecturing...let's get down to business ;)

Will Google tell you how cool you are?
06/14/2002 07:13 AM"Basically, Google indexes pages and returns results based on the
number of other people linking to your pages, and the importance of
those pages. So, in a very round about way, Google works out how
important a page is, based on the search criteria, and returns results
ordered by importance. So #1 is the "most important", and so on. So, I
do a search of the pages returned on the input name, and then compare
that returned list to see if the URL provided matches the results.
[...] The scores are summed, and the information returned. Now, you're
all thinking what a load of crap, that's basic, well, that's true.
However, the idea is based on developing agent based software that can
monitor important events and score the sources of information based on
how Google perceives them."

SEC Might Want To Cool Off After Reading
About Google In Playboy
08/12/2004 04:49 PMPoor Google. They've made such an effort to remain ridiculously quiet
during the "quiet period" to avoid any IPO delays, but now it's
looking like the thought of being in the same pages as naked women may
have gotten to them. The latest issue of Playboy apparently has
an interview with Google's co-founders that some believe may make
the SEC impose a "cooling off" period (I won't even go there...)
before they'll allow the IPO to proceed. This is, of course, the same
thing that happened to Salesforce.com, that had a huge
NY
Times interview with its founder come out days before the expected
IPO. The SEC made them push that IPO off a month. Considering the
weak state of the IPO market these days, this might not actually be a
bad thing, though I'm sure Google was hoping to get the process over
with as quickly as possible, to get rid of all this negative press and
detailed attention surrounding the IPO. Of course, it does make you
wonder... what happens to the auction process? Since the bidding is
set to close any minute now, if the IPO gets put off a month, will
they let people change their bids? Over the next month, plenty could
happen that might make people change how they feel about Google and
what they might be willing to pay.

A couple months back, there was

front-end to Google News that displayed topics and their relative
importance based on size.
Now comes
another visualization that's a little bit more abstract, but can
be used in the same way, to get "a picture" of what the
world considered news on any given day (and it has archives). Slick
stuff, rollover all the colored boxes to see topics and click to see
archived data.

What's a namber? A
namber is a word that acts as a mnemonic for a number. For
example, 65 is
drum, and 181 is
push.
A
namber address uses an arbitrarily-chosen list of nambers
to represent each of the numbers from 0 to 255 in order to assemble
four words to represent any IP address. Metafilter.com's namber is
earth
.frog.brown.tooth, and mysteryrobot.com conveniently provides
translation and forwarding to the real IP
address.

Tricks of the Trade
Tricks of the Trade
08/27/2004 01:33 PMThe Morning News has a fun article on "tricks of the trade": documenting little
tricks used in various professions. Great stuff.
This year, for instance, a programmer can always tack the
phrase "and I'm thinking of incorporating some XML functionality"¯
onto a project summary to explain why he'll need an extra week,
account for a missed deadline, or impress a superior. In this respect,
the gap between software engineers and birthday clowns is almost
negligible.

Nurse
Patients will occasionally pretend to be unconscious. A surefire way
to find them out is to pick up their hand, hold it above their face,
and let go. If they smack themselves, they’re most likely unconscious;
if not, they’re faking.

Spam That Tricks Me
Spam That Tricks Me
11/06/2003 04:11 AMIf you get enough spam, I'm sure you know the feeling. As you sort
through your mail, deleting the obvious spam, you find one that you're
not sure about and you end up opening it - and sure enough, it's spam
that tricked you. Every time you do that,
you probably
feel a little silly for getting tricked. I know I do. Columbia
Professor Sree Sreenivasan discusses a few of the messages that
tricked him and explains why he was fooled. He's a lot more forgiving
than I am, but I get fooled by more than my fair share. Meanwhile,
picking up on Sreenivasan's column is another reporter who points out
that if any readers want to email him, they need to come up with a
subject line that is clearly
not spam. I agree. I know there have been a few borderline
emails that I opened and turned out to not be spam - but I couldn't
tell from the subject lines. I'm sure there are others that I've
ended up deleting.

Trade Tricks is a
collection of all the little 'tricks of the trade' which people build
up with experience. Some are pretty hum-drum, but others are useful
even if you don't practice the trade. For example, this tip for
checking if a
diamond is real may at some time be handy, and this one for
washing a pan
would have been useful last night.

Stupid Laptop Tricks
Stupid Laptop Tricks
04/10/2005 12:47 PMIn advance response to those who would misread the title to this
article, it's the tricks that are stupid, not the laptop!
I just started a new job this week heading up the graphics
department of a small printing company. I had become accustomed to
having a laptop at my disposal at my old job — an aging 500MHz
PowerBook G4 — so my new employer sweetened his offer to lure me
to the new job with the promise of a spiffy new PowerBook. The new one
runs at 1.5GHz, and while the speed difference is impressive and
reason enough to not look back after the upgrade, some of the other
features, like the automatic screen dimming, lighted keyboard, Combo
drive, standard BlueTooth and AirPort, etc... are pretty cool too.
One of the things the guy at the Mac shop mentioned when he was
showing it to me was the "Sudden Motion Sensor" feature, which uses
several sensors in the case to detect sudden changes in position, and
will park the hard drive heads to keep them from crashing into the
drive platters. I hope I'll never need that feature, and really didn't
think much about it, but of course some people just aren't able to
leave a feature like that alone. Amit Singh has
figured out how to gather data generated by those sensors...
While the PowerBook only uses the AMS as a defensive measure to
prevent accidental damage to the disk drive, such sensors could have a
variety of uses. In particular, they have been considered an
alternative input methods in user interfaces for video game
controllers, phones, PDAs, and other mobile devices. While it is to be
seen if they will be successful in these areas, such use at least has
a novelty value
He's even built a couple of silly little apps that make use of the
sensors.
AMSV
isualizer A graphical application that displays a 3-D picture of a
PowerBook. The picture's orientation is a real-time approximation of
the PowerBook's physical orientation. Thus, the on-screen picture
moves with the movement of the AMS-equipped PowerBook.
Stable Window A graphical application that
creates a window displaying a bicycle wheel. The window is
"stable" in the sense that if you rotate the AMS-equipped
PowerBook left or right, the window compensates by rotating itself by
an equal amount in the opposite direction.
Running StableWindow is the wierdest thing; a window's edges are
just supposed to be aligned with the edges of the screen; seeing
something other than that is just... wierd. But some of the... um...
"practical" applications for this sound kinda fun. I catch
no end of grief from my wife & kids about using body english when
I'm playing FA-18
Hornet on the desktop machine at home; how cool would it be for
those body movements to actually control the simulator! Then I could
truthfully tell them that leaning in my chair actually does
help!
