Granted, but if Google can't parse it, I highly doubt anyone else is going to. And as nice as it would be if every web developer read the "Google Guide to Being Nice to Our Web Crawlers", as an internet we still can't get away from IE6. The

If only there were a way to get them to do something worthwhile. I'm sure if you went to these copyright pushers a couple years ago and said "Yes, you'll be able to get legislation that allows you to kick people off the internet for downloa

Considering the number of pages that rely on that php-image style scripting for simple things (like page hits), I'd be surprised if that didn't work on Safari. Sadly I don't have a Mac on hand, so I can't test it myself.

No more or less than following a link with a GET variable. I'm trying to find the article posted on TDWTF regarding a link that went to "&delete=true" that dropped the entire database...but, Ajax calls are no more or less frequently dat

I'm curious what you mean by when you say "track user sessions". Are you talking across multiple sites? Pages on the same domain? Or all sites that are running your analytics? You explicitly, for good reason, cannot read and write cookies f

Considering that it's Google, I'm honestly surprised they haven't created a crawler application that can execute the javascript on a given page and re-parse it based on the new layout. You wouldn't think it would be that hard, either-- take

I think the "loose and flexible" aspect is why so many people think it's a joke. For the longest time, the only Javascript I learned was from online tutorials, and 90% of those were complete and utter crud, showing different ways of doing t

I'll just leave this here. http://www.maths.tcd.ie/~nryan/demos/index.html Anyone who thinks program complexity is judged solely on program size has never written a demo, or participated in a JAPH/Perl Golf competition.

Create an anonymous email account and launch an EECB ( http://consumerist.com/2007/05/how-to-launch-an-executive-em... ). If their tech staff isn't listening, maybe you can scare the upper level management to. Just be very, very anonymous w

Considering the site we're on, I'm betting we're a minority that cares (or pays attention to) privacy measures-- the ones who would call us paranoid are the ones who are getting divorces after putting pictures of their mistresses on Faceboo
