Oh cripes. A political post.
I’m not at all sure that this idea is new. I bet some political scientist has already come up with it and found great formulas to integrate it into his voting scheme. But since I haven’t read about that guy yet, I’m goint to take credit for it.
Hey all.
Got a pet project I’m gonna lay on ‘ya. It’s a Google Search builder.
One of the fun things about Google is the interesting stuff you can find by just surfing and modifying your searches. But it’s such a hassle typing all the time. You gotta put your hand on the mouse to click links anyway, right?
So with this (very beta! so beta, it’s alpha!) page, you can drag-and-drop words. The green box is words you’re looking for, the red box is words you’re ignoring. The orange box is a shelf to save interesting results in. Yellow words are draggable. Give it a shot. Click the “Semi-Live” to get a new page of results every time you drag a word around.
One caveat: This does break the “back” button. It’s all AJAX-y and cool, but I haven’t given it any kind of memory yet. I’ll get to it.
Rock.
I hear these things are totally sweet. They’re cool or something. I don’t get it.
Call me old fashioned, but I just like finding people in the real world. Every one of my best friends I’ve met because I just happened to be somewhere (that’s not my house) at the same time as somebody else. I guess I’m also a bit paranoid about putting too much personal info on the internet in one convenient location.
Hey all!
Soooo…. I’ve set up this blog, right. It’s right here. You’re reading it. Good on ya.
And Blogger makes it really easy to add Google Adsense to the blog. Real easy. ‘Cuz Google owns Blogger. Cool beans. It’s all good.
Hey.
So this is going to be one of those posts where I act like I know something about sports. I assure you, I don’t. It’s all a clever (or not so much…) ruse.
The Pistons rock. They just do. And every time Shaq goes up against them, he gets frustrated. Case in point: 2004. LA Lakers. Goin’ home. Could be due to bad team dynamics that year. Could have been Kobe’s big head. Also could have been the Piston’s stiffling defense that year.
Guess I got a blog. Looka me. Bloggin’.
