My Search – Firefox search plugin

Well I use a lot the My Search from Yahoo and Firefox and I could’t found a search plugin. Because of that I have decided to modify the existing Yahoo plugin to suit my needs.

Click here to get it

You have to be logged in on Yahoo to use this at its full power

Usage:
Unpack the archive into searchplugins directory and restart the browser.

“big” Birthday indeed

Maybe I was expecting too much…but hey…ICE CREAM? I understand it’s a nice symbolic gesture…but…ICE CREAM? Where are the blogs guys? And When do you make public My Search feature?

I woke up up this morning at 7 AM hoping to see a different Yahoo or at least a redesign aspect of the forgotten features…but nothing beside an ICE CREAM.

I’ll look through today maybe I missed something but beside a Mail Tutorials link (that by the way could be there for a time) I don’t see anything new/changed

Maybe I need another coffee :)

Who’s the faster spider?

Sunday 27 I have activated the domain, setup Wordpress, and started posting. Good. Than:
- put the RSS on My Yahoo! for indexing
- setup a Technorati account
- submit to Google using the free submit

Results?

Spider Hits Bandwidth Date

Googlebot 13 33.78 KB 27 Feb 2005 – 21:22
Inktomi Slurp 2 10.28 KB 28 Feb 2005 – 22:43

Well I was idiot enough to do both Technorati and Google submit, but if I was to put my money on something…that would be Technorati. I mean is the Technorati the caused the googlebot visit.

Since now the domain shows up only on Yahoo though…let’s see how long is Googlebot digestion period
