Administrator — Sun, 26 Jul 2009 07:29:25 +0000

I use Google Reader to keep updated on all my subjects, work as private. And with the Shorcuts, that I honestly have to get use to, often mixing with the browser shortcuts, Google Reader is just great.

Try using Google Reader and pres “Shit + +” (shift and the Plus sign). This will show you the shortcuts yourself. I’ll attach an image to this post.

The chortcurts are:

How to get TABS on your personalized homepage on Google – tabbing

Administrator — Sun, 24 Sep 2006 22:30:51 +0000

As written earlier, Google now has TABS on their personalized homepage. Or is it your personalized homepage ??

I didn’t understand why the tabs keept disappearing untill I guess on the languagesetting. So how do you get tabs on google homepage? For me it worked, just making sure you’ve set your language to english When you live overseas somewhere, outside of the US at least, you get your local google settings thrown in your face. I hate that, let me decide what page and what language I wan’t. I can see how most people will benefit, but it’s just a pain in the neck for me.

Anyway, to keep my subject here, switch away from your national languagesettings, if you’re not born with Google english And you should start seeing Tabs on your google personalized page. Gee, too long a post for such a little thing.
Nite nite

Google personlized page with Tabs, now you see them now you dont

Administrator — Sat, 23 Sep 2006 16:40:07 +0000

WOW, I was soo happy, I wen’t to my personalized google homepage, and all the sudden it had tabs ! Great, I put my feeds in tabs, organized most of them, but when I wen’t back, it was all gone.

Google’s experimenting with “tabbed browsing”, at least it’s tabs on their homepage, nice nice. Bring them back to me please google.

Netvibes.com has them, please Google get up in speed with your page too.

UPDATE
Make sure you use Google homepage in english, or you won’t see the new TABS

Google job – job at Google ?

Administrator — Wed, 29 Mar 2006 09:50:06 +0000

If you are looking for at job at Google, all you have to do is search.

Google can have so much fun with their index. They can present whatever they want, make special searches return special results etc. I often wonder what Easter eggs they have on Google.com, or if they have clowns employed to make fun on the site.

So, instead of searching for the job section on Google.com, search for the word “google careers” directly in the searchfield (source: Battelle)

It doesn’t work on your local language-Google however. So make sure you use the international Google.com (http://www.google.com/webhp?hl=en)

Google Search History – Your personalized search statistics

Administrator — Mon, 06 Feb 2006 15:11:48 +0000

When you start using Googles features as much as I am, you start discovering the benefits across all the Google tools.

Search History
One nice feature is the ability to review and search what you have been searching for on Google. When logged in, Google will save your searchresults and can show them to you over time.

Google is working on personalized searches, as well as geographical searches. Your searchpatterns help to present relevant searches in your SERP (search engine result page). You may dislike and have second opinions on the storing/monitoring of your search, but they do monitor and use that information. Soon the issue of privacy and democracy will rise in importance.

Google bookmarks
If you have a personalized Google-page (consider it if you don’t). When you add bookmarks, you can have those bookmarks shown in a dedicated page http://www.google.com/bookmarks/. No obvious links are shown to the Trends, showing your statistics, but you can access them here: http://www.google.com/bookmarks/trends?.

Have a look at my stats here: Google Search History

The calendar gives you the option of selecting and viewing searches on specific dates:

You can view:

Top searches, Top sites, Top clicks
Monthly search activity
Daily search activity
Hourly search activity
New queries similar to your searches

I have my personalized Google homepage www.google.com/ig, my Gmail www.gmail.com, Google analytics Gogle sitemap, Google AdSense, Google groups and some more, and enjoy most of them. Occasionally I tend to bug Google with support-issues and ideas for new features. Wow they must get flooded by users like me

Search blogs with Google Blog Search

Administrator — Mon, 06 Feb 2006 00:20:04 +0000

Google is blogging, and … is also indexing blogs – Blog search. Google does an good job, others are still ahead. Never mind who is ahead, Google is probably taking that gold medal too, and advancing to the number one position soon.

Simplicity rules once again, and this time even more simpel than ever before. Google frontpages are living by the rule that the most trafficking services reach the frontpage, and no more that seven is shown. The Blog search has only one service, the ability to search blogs Oh yea, and an advances search options. My favourite option here is the option to search posts in date ranges. I would love to have that option on the ordinary websearch ! That’s a wish Google, if you read this post

Watch NBA video on Google Video

Administrator — Mon, 30 Jan 2006 10:01:15 +0000

Sometimes the Google guys must be having so much fun. With a website like google, most things are possible. All that content, all those features, and surely all that time they spend at work, must end up in some funny features.

I’m sure they made this little feature some day late at work, when they needed a break – or heard from their friend that had been at home watching the games in tv.

They’ve made a special page for Google video, “Watch your favorite NBA games“.

Note the little addiction in the searchfield. More specific options are surely available on Google Video – reveiled over time.

Officially, the “Team:Name_your_NBA_team” search, is no where to see.

Search Google Video by title

“Title:”
“title:Subject” example: “title:adwords”

“Team:”
“team:Los_Angeles_Lakers” example: “team:Los_Angeles_Lakers”

See if you can make the team-feature work on other teams than NBA, and post em here
