Google Juice searching

Here's the first version of my google juice search macro. This is the advanced page, there'll be a simpler one for each page that'll live in a side bar.

Still need to sort my archives so they aren'r indexed by Google. Thus, only pages that would be returned from Google would be the google juice pages — one post per page.

Into the Blogosphere, theory and bollocks

"...contributions represent perspectives from Rhetoric, Communication, Sociology, Cultural Studies, Linguistics, and Education, among others."

Plenty of high level thought here. A selection of essays trying to undetstand thereason for blog, their effect and future.(I think.)

Old tools to be updated for Radio

menus:
I had almost forgotten about this bookmarks tool. For Manila, showing all the preferences, settings, pages et. al.. Download a folder and import it into your bookmarks. I was then, on Apple Macs both client and server. Must see if I can use it for Radio on a PC. And how to do this for Mozilla.

One of the problems I had with it, back in the old days, was Mozilla not allowing so many bookmarks into one folder. Imagine, each folder would have 200 or so bookmarks. And I had several Manila sites to manage... Too many bookmarks for poor old Moz. I think that should have changed now.

 
And I found this old page about Radio and Manila. Nice stuff for automating the maintanence of Manila. And I must re-plug in that calendar to my Radio installation. Once again, as I've moved from Mac to PC I need to fix broken tools.

Image: bigcaledarWithRadio.jpg: Uploaded image, its shortcut name is bigcaledarWithRadio Sun, 04 Nov 2001 02:21:10 GMT But when you add in full sized daily postings, this page draws up 7 days x 800px = 5,600px wide page... No good even for very wide screens, but fine for printing out posters.

And this old theme tool. All the graphic text is editable. Though, then I was using ImageStyler, now I'm using the much more powerful Photoshop.

My google juice tool for Radio

I think I have a neat way of using google as a more dedicated search box for my site. By adding a string categories/personal/2003/06 I can search just a directory. Only it is contaminated by my archives(need to check my meta noIndex), and I need to clean up the  hints some way. It just cries out for a macro, with radio buttons for category search and search depth.

blogsnow: what blogs link to

Another blog RSS tracking service: "blogsnow: what blogs link to you know first"

Barebones but useful—if it had a feed.

Technorati tracks 3 million blogs

One of the comments: "You really do have to find something you're passionate about so you want to take the time and energy to post."
Three million passions.

I liked the graphs of increasing usage. Another 5,997 million to go.
