If are using Firefox along side Google’s browser, this "Open in Google Chrome" extension might come handy - it lets you open web sites directly in Google Chrome from Firefox itself with a right click or via the Chrome button that’s near the Firefox address bar (optional). Background and Credits You may have noticed some similarity between this "Open in Google Chrome" and the popular "IE View" add-on. Well, they are identical extensions with the ...

The basic idea for this comes from this question “What if you won’t have to code those ugly CSS hacks for those browsers that just won’t show you what you want them to?”. Again writing about cross browser problems and solutions like on “IE7 JS library review“. I’ve ran into two solutions for this. I personally haven’t tried this but, on the demos it seems to be working and i think it’s very good idea. ...

Here’s a list of 52 meditations, one for each week of the year. I sit silently each Sunday evening before bedtime and repeat one meditation as a mantra in my mind. I get lost in thought for a little while and then I fall asleep. This weekly ritual has helped me keep things in perspective. There are people in this world that would die for me.

I’ve been using Tumblr off and on since early April. I tend to neglect it because I’ve found the interface a bit clumsy. The recent redesign hasn’t improved on the things that I consider obstacles in getting things quickly added to my tumblr. Since the concept behind the tumblr is to quickly share things with people, the interface doesn’t facilitate this workflow as quickly as I think it could. In any event, I tend to ...

The images that you see next to blog comments here are not the regular gravatar pictures, instead they are favicons pulled from the website of the person who has written that comment. Same is the case with favicons that are displayed near external hyperlinks in the tech river. With these images, you can easily figure out the target page without having to look at the browser’s status bar. Google Shared Stuff (S2) offers a secret ...

更加全面地用Google搜索的最好方式是点击高级搜索。 它可以让你搜索更加精准的词组,“所有词组”或者是适当的搜索框里输入词组的某一个特定关键词。 在高级搜索里你依然可以自定义在一张页面上展示多少个搜索结果,你所寻找的信息语言和文件格式。 “搜索以下网站或网域”可以让你通过输入一个顶级域名(如.co.uk)来限定搜索结果。 你也可以点击“日期、使用权限、数字范围和更多”的链接以获取更高级的功能。(Google中文直接分条在页面展示。) 保存设置,这些高级功能大多也可以在Google首页的搜索框中通过命令行参数来实现 Google的主要搜索可以无形地用布尔结构“AND”来结合。你当输入smoke fire - 它表示寻找smoke AND fire. 要让Google搜索Smoke 或者fire,只需要输入smoke OR fire. 你也可以用 | 来代替OR。如:smoke | fire. 像AND 和 OR 这样的布尔结构对大小写非常敏感。他们必须是全部大写。 搜索专有名词,然后输入用括号括住的一个或者几个关键词。比如water (smoke OR fire) 寻找短语,可以把它们放在引号里。比如:"there’s no smoke without fire"。 同义搜索来寻找那些类似的信息,只须在你的关键词臆加一根波浪线,比如:~eggplant. 用减号来排除关键词,如:new pram -ebay 可以让搜索结果排除来自Ebay的婴儿车信息。 像 I, and, then ,if 这类普通词语是要被Google 忽略的。他们被称作停滞词语。 而加号却可以让这些停滞词语给包含进来,比如:fish +and chips. 如果一个停滞词语被包含在那些作为短语的引用标记中间的句子中时,这些词语是被Google允许的。 你也可以要求Google进行简省搜索,试一下:Christopher Columbus discovered * 用数字范围功能来搜索数字范围。例如:搜索价位在300英到500英磅之间的索尼电视可以用以下字串:Sony TV £300..£500。 通过高级搜索Google认可13种主要文件格式,其中包括Office, Lotus, PostScript, Shockwave Flash 和text。 搜索这些文件只需直接使用修饰符 filetype:[文件扩展名]。例如:soccer filetype:pdf. 要排除整个文件格式,只需使用以前我们排除关键词时使用的相同布尔句法:橄榄球 -filetype:doc 事实上,只要你的语法正确,你可以混合使用任何布尔搜索运算符。举个例子便是:"sausage and mash" -onions filetype:doc Google也有很多功能强大却隐藏着的搜索参数,例如“intitle” 仅仅只会搜索网页标题(titles).你可以用这个例子试一试:intitle:网页设计 ...

Lee's comment that mentions having a folder for items you're about to delete reminds me of probably the script that has most contributed to sanity in my filing system. It's pig simple, albeit a bit scary to write and enact. All it does is delete everything in a given folder that's over a week old. I've had bad experience with handing "delete file" powers to an automatic script before, so I'll disclaim any warranty ("TO ...
