Watching the sea-level rise, virtually.

Posted on Wednesday, August 23rd, 2006

Here’s an interesting Google Maps implementation: Flood Maps.
What if the sea-level where to rise? .. Because the polar ice-caps are melting at an alarming rate … Would you be able to keep your feet dry? Now you can find out for yourself. (And maybe decide about that piece of real-estate you’ve layed your eyes on. […]

Pizza in Europe?

Posted on Wednesday, April 26th, 2006

Lately there has been some news surrounding Google Maps. As a result I’m obliged to sum things up. ThinkLemon style, surely.
First, it was called Google Maps (beta), then Local, and now Maps again. Probably because everyone was calling it Maps anyhow. The Google Blog explains more.
Second, Maps has expanded to continental Europe. Finally I’d […]

Ask.com Maps & Directions

Posted on Sunday, March 5th, 2006

The latest addition to the online mapping frenzy comes from none other than ask.com (that search engine that fired its card-bored butler remember?).
At map.ask.com you can find maps and directions. A first glance may remind you of that other mapping solution. But … this one is aware of roads in the rest of the world, […]

But this time they’ve released a product that lets my mother create webpages in no-time, although I doubt if anyone’s waiting for another bridge-site. (Sorry mom. :-))

Posted on Wednesday, February 22nd, 2006

I’ve been looking at this ‘Future Pagerank’ for some days now:

What’s it gonna be? A PR 6? Level off on a PR 5? Or a penalty on a PR 1? I can’t tell from all the datacenters dancing around.

Who’s using the Search Bar anyway?

Posted on Thursday, February 16th, 2006

While browsing to Yahoo! this bar on top struck me. Click to enlarge:

Apparently Yahoo! is promoting the Search Bar, which is standard issue in Firefox. Guess they want us to change the default Google setting.

Google Code: Web Authoring Statistics

Posted on Friday, January 27th, 2006

Over at Google Code they ran a survey, in December 2005, looking at a couple of webpages trying to find out which elements and their respective attributes are used most. And more importantly how they are used.
We took a sample of slightly over a billion documents, and looked at what elements were used on the […]
