Quite an achievement in such a short timespan! Nitpicks: the frontpage says "an verification method"; should be "a". And, of course, validation: http://vldtr.com/?key=reocities.com

Google returns 20-26 pages (no idea where the variation comes from), but no matter what I do, I never find more than 9 pages in Bing's index with any query. Sure it's not exact science, but the difference is large enough to indicate a quali

It's a normal Google url since Google started using ajax. I also get it when I go to google.co.uk and search for something. See also here: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=464393

Have you considered moving the "Pick one!" column to the middle? It might be more obvious there. Why is the about-page styled differently from the rest of the site? It also has a stray </a>. More (minor) html errors: http://vldtr.c

You could do something like this for the time being: $("a").bind("click", function() { document.location = $(this).attr("href"); }); (jQuery)

It's hardly spying when anyone can view the page source and see what's happening. Or install something like Ghostery.

Looks nice and useful, but scheduling is a bit unclear to me: I have 1 testscript, 7 browsers, which makes 7 tests. If I schedule to run every "day", will those 7 tests run every day, or 1 a day? I expect the first, but "Our scheduler will

If you search for "site:vldtr.com" on http://search.yahoo.com/ you automatically get redirected to the site explorer. However, the index isn't very up to date. Compare: http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/search?p=http%3A%2F%2Fv... ht

Same here. A list is just much easier to read. You also have some errors in your html ( http://vldtr.com/?key=webdesignerd.com ). Especially the double use of id="header" could lead to some unexpected behaviour at some point. And don't fo

Probably much faster, but also doing half the work yourself. It'll depend on the situation which is the better solution.

That's not entirely right. It should be: print ((n+1)*n)/2 (fold the sequence in half, which gives you 100 + 1 on one end and 50 + 51 on the other.)

Could human input help? How about a site that lets visitors answer questions that are then used to improve the responses to spammers? The result could be smarter than AI and more efficient than humans. Social or game aspects could make it i

Fair point. However, I feel the question "should they be subject to the same regulation as .." has the same answer as "are they competing with .." In this case that answer probably depends on who you ask.

Google: "Unlike traditional carriers, Google Voice is a free, Web-based software application, and so not subject to common carrier laws." I don't get how price or underlying technology figure in this. Almost all of the end-users won't see t

That is probably why the pages mention "unofficial" 5 times and "automatically generated by" 7 times. And contrary to GetSatisfaction, the associated logo isn't on the page.

I filled in 'test' for name and got the message: "Name already used with a different email address!" and the results were shown. Did I vote, or do I have to change the name and try again? What if it was my real name that is already used?
