Microsoft Desktop Search

by

life was once simple, I use Firefox love tabs… blah blah.. and i have always been on the lookout for a good desktop search tool.

If you are anything like me you have tons of stuff stored all over you harddrive, and tend to misplace that odd picture or MP3 of Strikepoint ( my radio show, plug done ;) ) .. well I have tried :

Google Desktop Search : deskbar.google.com I had a few issues with it, Mainly control and where to store the index files , I thought that the way the results where displayed was also poor .. it lasted a couple of weeks then i removed it..

301 Redirect on page code

301 Redirect

301 redirection and the Search Engines. It’s really not that hard to implement and it should help your search engine rankings when move sites or pages that where listed in the search engine

The Search Engines see the “301″ Has “moved permanently”.


301 Redirect in ColdFusion
<.cfheader statuscode="301" statustext="Moved permanently">
<.cfheader name="Location" value="http://www.new-site.com">


301 Redirect in PHP
<?php
Header( "HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently" );
Header( "Location: http://www.new-site.com" );
?>


301 Redirect in ASP
<%@ Language=VBScript %>
<%
Response.Status="301 Moved Permanently"
Response.AddHeader "Location", " http://www.new-site.com"
>


301 Redirect in ASP .NET
<script runat="server">
private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
Response.Status = "301 Moved Permanently";
Response.AddHeader("Location","http://www.new-site.com");
}
</script>

TrustRank Server

by

I was just reading this article about Google’s new anti-phishing toolbar. As any web developer would do when he sees this:

GET /safebrowsing/lookup?sourceid=firefox-antiphish&features=TrustRank&client=navclient-auto-ape&q=http%3A%2F%2Fcnn.com%2F HTTP/1.1
Host: www.google.com
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5

Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7
Keep-Alive: 300
Proxy-Connection: keep-alive

I decided to try it out. Nothing interesting happened really, except this:
