Pretty simple to do using Chrome's network inspector as well. I found that Turntable had made it pretty easy to save songs as well, but changed their scheme a while back. Also, kinda disappointed to realize that Rdio no longer does the auto

I quickly wrote a script to do this locally, not the most efficient, but I'm at work ;) https://github.com/hungtruong/LinkedIn-Password-Checker

Sort of lost his credibility after he revealed that he was canned. If you're spinning your wheels at a company and hate the culture, why not do something about it? You're as bad as the useless meeting-goers if you can't actually do somethin

I believe those denote locations of Google offices. There's also some in Mountain View.

This happened to me, too. Here's my experience with how unresponsive Google was (and is): http://www.hung-truong.com/blog/2011/11/02/dropbox-referrals...

Happened to me, too. I did end up getting the full amount of referrals possible before it happened though :)

I believe frontend means requests handled through normal frontend hits from end users, while backend instances are for longer running background processes.

I noticed that on Chrome in Snow Leopard, too. Guess it needs a little more tweaking!

I love that the image has a status message saying "I'm hosting game night tomorrow night" and that the message was posted "five days ago." How useful!

Someone should compile a list of companies that won't consider unemployed applicants. Perhaps with enough bad publicity these companies will change their policies.

Caching is nice, but HTTP has a built-in method: conditional GETs. I wrote up a blog post on how to do this with App Engine but it should work generally in Python using urllib2. http://www.hung-truong.com/blog/2010/12/01/conditional-gets-.

The simple explanation does not factor in economies of scale. You might make a good wage working for someone else because they have some kind of market advantage. Would 100 mini-Googles that were 1/100th the size of Google make as much mone

Thanks for your comment! I actually forgot to show the same mobile content to Googlebot-mobile, so I think that's why they assumed it was cloaking. My site gets pretty consistent traffic. It goes up and down depending on the day of the week

The difference is that this was not observed from a sting operation where Google tried very hard to show that their rankings were having an effect on Bing results. It's a happy accident that I decided to take a closer look at and write my t

I also had a suggestion to show different content to Goooglebot and Bingbot. While that would make scientific sense, it wouldn't necessarily make financial sense ;)

To answer your question. My theory is that my site dropped in search engine results pages for Google. The Bing toolbar stopped getting click info for my site and dropped their rankings as well. That's how the toolbar could gather that info
