Great! It's a kind of open review for all Google's projects in alpha/beta stage. I like that Google's move.

There is a big difference between forcing the dumb cut for a significant part of page's representation (e.g., by Lynx), and showing the creatively minimized images, JavaScript, and CSS files in Mini-WWW's pages.

OK, I will not :-) I'm somewhat confused why some my answers I think are very important for this topic are down-voted ...

Once again, any software, or any web browser (be it Lynx, Apple's Safari, or mobile ones) needs to LOAD WEBPAGE FIRST! FULLY! And that's for some users may be a very serious obstacle!

Who said the actual implementation for the Mini-WWW search would be the same next week? And WHO SAID THE MINIMAL INTRODUCTION PRICE OF $1 IS FOREVER?!!

Unlike Mini-WWW, the problem with Instapaper is the resulting format is the SAME for all pages! It's rather boring world!

by Mini-WWW 16y ago
As far as I remember, the Instapaper simply saves web pages for reading later. Although it may somehow facilitate easy reading of long text content (e.g., by moving it into another reading platform like Kindle), but not too much.

Rather, I want to highlight existing Minimal sub-Web through introducing the special niche Search Engine http://Mini-WWW.com ! Hopefully, it can encourage webmasters to create more USABLE pages, like mobile or RSS movement. But to get to t

inerte, your "crawl webpages, remove html tags from source, wrap blocks of newlines" means STEALING other people's content, while Mini-WWW's way does not! It only points to EXISTING simple pages! And yes, I do want such pages. To be able to

How one can use Readability for the cluttered site like Digg, if the latter practically stops low powered PCs at the very first stage, - downloading!!!

Hey, jacquesm, honestly, - have you EVER VISITED the http://mini- news.com/ (url messed up on purpose) you mentioned so angry? Does it look like a spam site full of ads? Absolutely not! The spam is to tell people you don't know for sure!

To say that the current Mini-WWW's gradual ranking for simplicity is better that a more radical AD-FREE idea of 2008. That's all!

My "Thank you" was sincere! I launched the Mini-WWW Search Engine because I SIMPLY COULD NOT READ many beautiful websites their developers still very proud of. So, that's my first criteria for the Ideal Minimal Webpage, - the one that it'

Nope, it's not that simple: The Unformatted Web you propose is simply too dull and boring! That's why the MiniRank Formula specifically degrades such TEXT-ONLY pages! http://mini-www.com/blog/mini_competitors/

Corin, I'm afraid you're jumping too fast: I wrote that article two years ago, and it has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with the Mini-WWW project!

Thank you, Lukeqsee! The execution is just in early ALPHA stage. I even run it on a cheapest shared web account (more powerful dedicated server and search soft are to be in October only). As for what minimal page is, I would tell you I've

Ramanujan, you would be surprised even more if I tell you that during last 2 hours I even wasn't online: my Internet provider had some problems and cut off Internet for me during recent hours.

by Mini-WWW 16y ago
That's exactly what I will try to do next! However, the soft will be no more than some tips for pre-selection purposes only. Yet the final stage should be manual anyway.

by Mini-WWW 16y ago
Relying on a manual review process would be a failure only in the case you want to include into your search engine the whole Web. In contrast, the proposed niche is for a small Sub-Web, where a slow, - yet quality! - manual reviewing would
