I alredy have most of these. My favorite if all would have to be Adblock. You can bloack ads quickly and easily, and it works great.

Awesome! Thats pretty neat. But it would be better if they made it look more like the real google website.

I have had lots of people ask me how they can add a search engine to any website, so when i found this (relativly short) article in a newsletter I thought I would share it with you guys. How to Add a Search Engine to Your Site By Herman Drost When visitors arrive at your web site you want them to find the information quickly otherwise they will losë patience and move on. A great way achieve this is to add a search engine or search box to your web site. Since most visitors are already familiar with using search engines such as Google, they can easily use the search feature on your site. In this article I will discuss: A. The benefits of adding a search engine B. Types of search service providers C. Where to place a search box on your site D. How does the search engine work A. Benefits of Adding Search Engine and Types of Sites Where It Can Be Used 1. Ecommerce sites - your ecommerce site usually has many different types of products so the navigation menu is not focused enough to rapidly find the specific product your visitor is looking for. Adding a search engine to your ecommerce site will help the visitor to easily and quickly zoom in on the product by entering their keyword in the search box. 2. Dynamic sites - search engines have difficulty spidering dynamically generated web pages. These are pages often generated from a database, so the information on your pages will not appear in the search engine's index. Add a search engine to each page of your site. If a visitor arrives on that page from one of the large search engines, they can then do a quick search from that page instead of searching elsewhere. 3. Small sites - web sites that contain 5-10 pages don't need a search engine because visitors don't have to search through many pages to find the information. Instead, make sure you create a simple navigation menu at the top or side and bottom of your web pages. B. Types of Search Service Providers 1. Atomz - Atomz Express Search is a frëe service where you can integrate basic search capability on your personal web site or on one of your commercial sites. It can be used on sites with 750 total pages or less and allows customization of look and feel to match your site's design. Some third-party text ads are shown above and below the search results. You can use it for as long as you like for there is no trial period. 2. Freefind - features include the ability to customize search and results pages. The frëe accounts are limited to 3,000 pages or 32MB of storage. Site search is hosted on FreeFind's server. It generates a site map for you, tracks visitors searches and indexes password protected pages. 3. Google's Services - searches only the specific domain(s) that you list when you create your search box. You can customize your results display to include background, text and link colors you select. The search box itself will reside on your web site. The search results page will be served by Google with the customized look and feel you specify. Google may serve ads on the results page. You can do an unlïmited amount of searches. You must display the Google logo on the web pages that contain the search box.

Place the search box in a prominent location on your web page...preferably top center or top right. 2. Place the search box on all pages of your web site. Visitors may enter your site from any page. 3. Make the search box large enough to accommodate all search terms the visitor would use to find the information. 4. The search box should be a type-in box, not a link so visitors don't have to wait for another page to load. 5. Limit the search results to 50 per page. Visitors losë their patience if they have to scroll through long lists of results. D. How Does the Search Engine Work? It works similar to the major search engines that search the web, however instead of crawling the web the search engine spider will search your site. The results of the crawl are stored in a database that resides on the search company's server. The company provides the necessary code to add a simple förm to your web page. This usually consists of a search box for inserting your keywords and a send button. When you clïck the button it sends the query to the search company. They process the query to create a search results page. This shows those pages in your site that match the visitor's query. The quality of the search results the search engine spider collects depends on how much information is contained in your site. Therefore take time to correctly optimize your site i.e. provide lots of good content that includes your keywords. Optimize your meta tags, images and create an accessible navigation structure. Optimizing your site will not only provide focused results from your internal search engine but also boost your rankings in the major search engines.

Hello, I found this FTP program a while ago, and I thought I would share it with you. It works good, its fast, and its free. Its got a simple drag and drop interface, and ive never had any problems with it. You can find out more, or download it, Here.

Really im dissapointed about what Sony did with PS3. For one the controlers are messed, and it does look all that good compared to the new Xbox. Now for nentendo... ive never really trusted them. Gamecube was a dissapointement to me, and I think PS3 and Xbox are going to own the Revo...Theres my ideas...Byroman

Stupid Stupid Microsoft...If you ask me, they just dont want to admit that they are falling behind in the latest technologies. Google Maps is still much better than this MSN thing. The only thing google should do is expand to other contries with google maps. Google's image quality is still much better than MSN's from what i can see, and while google's a bit hit or miss on finding the right adresses, MSN apears to be doing the same. It put my adress on a totally different street like what happens some times on google.Few weeks age i downloaded google earth. Wow. This program is great. I only have an ATI Radeon 7000 and it still runs relativly good. The only problem is that i live in a little village in Canada where high speed is like dial-up, so its a bit slow, and also my "village" is in one of the really low quality areas, so i can hardly find my street!What Google should do now for google earth is get High-Quality shots for more cities and different areas of the world.

Sound is'nt working? Well check and see if your sound card is compatible with Mac Software (suprisingly not all do) and maybe try installing your sound driver again and see if that works.

Im with you... i love Macs, but im stuck with windows. The only thing that sucks about Mac is that almost no good games can run on it.... the story of my life...

Ahh man... i was totally adicted to that game for over 3 years... i played soo much. My character was about lvl 85 after i quit. One thing that sucks on that game is that once you get really good at every thing... it kinda gets boring. Unless you become a member which is over priced if you ask me. Now all thats fun on that game to me is PKing which os getting boring too if you own every one...

Ive been paided by them over 50$...

Hey Guys,Just wanted to know if any of you play Guildwars. Im adicted to this game now and just wanted to see if theres any one on this forum who plays it too! (I also could use some people for my guild )

Most of you have probably already heard about Firefox, and those who havent, you dont know what your missing! This rock solid program is amazing, I have never had any problems with it frezing or any thing! You can even download thousands of plug-ins for displaying the weather, playing music and much more, you can even make your own because firefox is developer freindly. You can also get tonnes of themes for your browser, different colours to make it your own. Firefox is also a lot safer to use than Internet Explorer. Spyware ad programs can not install them selves on to Firefox, so you wont get any of those anoying pop-ups. And best of all: Its conpletly free. Mozilla also offers an email program thats much like Outlook. What do you think of Firefox? Please post below!
