Photo Safari
A friend of mine introduced me to this... digital cameras save photos using a pre-defined naming convention, such as a letter followed by a series of numbers. When you upload your photos to the Web, you can change the names of these files, or keep them as the default. If the numbers are not changed, you can go on a photo safari, using Google to search through Web sites of people who share the same digital camera and naming convention. For example, this search of P5040003 brings up a list of photos using that number on Web sites. Let me know if you find any other numbers!

we are going to be deeper in the shit than we realise. bush is going to lead us into war next year and the timing won't be right.here is the proof.

Your life is passing you by in 30 second slices.

Make Google money! Do a search for something on Google, Microsoft, say. Then click one of the sponsored links, in this case, Verisign's, to charge them for using Google's adwords. Do this ten times a day and have fun manipulating the economy of the Internet!

Disturbing:BBC article mentioning CIA project to send anthrax through the mail. CNN article detailing CIA's response.

Dave says they reinstated Xenu.net, so it must be true.

Another article about blogging. What I'd like to see is a way to see every single new blog post on one page. Blogger could do it. All you are doing is posting text on a database... why not go one step further and allow all public posts to be streamed by post date and time to a master blog page where authors are credited. Templates could be chosen by the reader.

Yes, I found this at the top of blogdex. It is scary, very scary, in its implications. If the Church of Scientology can threaten lawsuits to remove links from Google, then where can reasonable people go to search the Web? Possible implications include laws on Web searching-- what can be included in a search and what cannot; where bots can roam to discover links and where they cannot.

For the record, anti-Scientology links can be found at:

• Xenu.net and
  
• Clambake.org
  
• Scientology-kills
  

I don't know what the official Scientology link is... perhaps you can find it on Google.

Spam Radio makes me think of a future where we can interact more vocally with computers. Imagine a computer reading the morning paper to you. Imaging asking it to read the headlines and telling it to stop and read the articles that interest you. Imagine blogradio, where currently updated blogs are read to you in various computer voices. Imagine plugging your cell phone into your car stereo to surf the net while you drive. Imagine listening to Shoutcast and having access to a wider variety of programs than FM radio at a cheaper rate than satellite radio...

Sounds like the Tomaco on the Simpsons.

I read in Ben Sullivan's Tech Blog that Apple needs flatter servers to compete in the same market as Sun. I think they should make a white flat server with an Apple logo in the middle. Kind of like what Google is doing with their seach appliance.
