alltheweb goes standards compliant 11/18/2002 12:58 PM
This seems to be happening a lot lately, another major player in the web world has gone standards compliant. Alltheweb is a popular search engine, and they have made their site XHTML and CSS compliant. They also allow you to totally customize the look and feel of the page through customizing the style sheet (as well as picking predefined ones). Gazingus has a Google bookmarklet that allows you to quickly and easily search Google. It will find highlighted text in the current page and search for that text, or upon not finding any highlighted text, will prompt you for a search term. I have modified that bookmarklet for Alltheweb, drag it into your favorites or do what you please with it: Search alltheweb

AllTheWeb, which you might recall was just bought by Google's largest competitor, has redesigned to look more like Google. From SearchDay: "There is no reason to reinvent the wheel," said Peter Bauert, Director of Business Development for FAST. "Having said that, there's no way you can compete on look and feel alone." SearchDay adds: "Coming hard on the heels of last week's purchase of AlltheWeb by Overture, it's fair to ask whether this change has been prompted by AlltheWeb's new owner, to make the search engine more Google-like. Absolutely not, says Tim Mayer, FAST's vice president web search." AllTheWeb has a page on their recent changes....

< img src="http://www.gizmodo.com/archives/images/voda_802se.jpg" alt="voda_802se.jpg image" width="398" height="360" class="center"/>Looks like the rumored Sony Ericsson Z1020 has been reborn as the Vodafone 802SE, a tri-band Bluetooth camera with a built-in 1.3-megapixel camera, 262k-color screen, and Memory Stick Duo Pro slots. Honestly, I don't know if it lives up to all the hype, but I know lots of you guys were clamoring for it, so far be it from me to judge it too harshly.

I was told it was up on Sony's Japanese site, but if it was, it looks like it's been pulled to me. (Thanks, Andrew!)

Canadian developer Keynote Theme Park has released two new themes for Apple's Keynote presentation software. Da Vinci (US$19.95) features 61 transparent versions of the master artist's notebook illustrations that you can use for slide backgrounds in addition to three fonts, including one based on his own handwriting. It was created in 1024 x 768 resolution and includes a Photoshop Action that turns any image into a sepia-toned illustration, making it blend with Da Vinci's work. In addition, the company has released Titanium Jr., a free 800 x 600 resolution theme that comes with five photo cutouts. Finally, Keynote Theme Park has also posted on its Web site a video tutorial that shows how to create photo cutouts for any slide background.

1 Million Free Songs for Download


1 Million Free Songs for Download 07/29/2004 03:28 PM

In my experience, most of the RIAA-hating nerds who swear they'll never to buy another album again continue to download copyrighted, RIAA-financed music from less-than-legal sources (and I've done it, too, so simmer down). What's crazy, though, is that if you really don't want to bend any laws, there is a wealth of free music online -- and The Red Ferret Journal just set up a Wiki (a user-edited web page) to make it even easier. There are hundreds of thousands of freely downloadable songs on the websites listed (some of them are even not techno) and thousands more non-RIAA-backed labels selling songs, too -- so if you really want to fill up that iPod without "stealing music," you do have an option to do so.

Mainly, though, I just wanted you to feel extra guilty when you download RIAA music anyway.
