Google trade secrets

I realy like the personalized search. Now whenever I want to search for something I dont have to sift through off topic things all the time. The Voice search I dont get the reasoning behind. What is the point? If you can dial a phone you can type on a keyboard.

Now this is really cool. Remember all suggestions are being made in near real-time!

 

Google Suggest

 

Fantastic. It's like Google with auto complete built right into it. I wonder if with features like this, they're making us users more lazy?

 

FAQ for the site is available here.

I read a rather amusing article about a porn search engine with the name "Booble" and with a search interface modelled after Google's. Now Google's going to sue Booble! Haha. Apparently, it's a parody of Google. Extract:

Booble takes a poke at Google
http://www.smh.com.au/articles/2004/01/21/1074360801017.html

Parodying Google, the world's largest search engine, a US entrepreneur today launched Booble, a new search engine for adult material.

An unnamed New York-based former internet executive has pumped his own money into the new website, which its founder said was intended to be "fun, but useful too".

It allows users to filter through more than 6,000 hand-selected listings of internet adult content.

"I have a web development operation where there is a bit of a frat boy atmosphere, so we stumbled on Booble," said the founder, who requested anonymity to avoid being barred from his daughter's school softball games.

"What was a bit fun and a joke became a business. People like it. It makes people smile. It's funny and I think it'll grow," the man in his mid-40s told AFP.

The adult sites to which Booble users will be directed have been filtered to exclude illegal or extremely hard-core material, using criteria including whether a site is worth the price it charges viewers and the quality of its images.

"It is fun, but there is a real story behind Booble in that it's hard to find good adult content," the founder said.

"There are about 25,000 adult sites and a fraction of sites in really major categories like movies and music and sports, causing a lot of clutter and confusion."

The businessman, who said he was once a senior executive at "one of America's leading online services," said he ended up spending far more money on the venture than expected but declined to specify the amount.

Officials from Google were not immediately available for comment on the new adult search engine whose name and home page bear a striking resemblance to those of Google.

"We don't have any relationship with Google but we have put a link to their site on ours and so far we haven't heard from them," the anonymous founder said.

"We don't want to do anything is illegal - it's a parody, it's funny and we're not out to confuse anybody so we hope they will take the joke in the spirit in which it was intended."

I've always had fun with the Google Languages. I've found them a while back during a class and made it my home page. One day it was 'Elmer Fudd', another day it was '1337'. Cracked my friends up. It was interesting the day my friend founf elgoog.
