Google Patent Search

Category : Information

I was just amazed to see that google had worked on such projects. Most of the people don’t even know about Google Patent Search.   Google has fully index and cross-reference over 7 million patents of past and present.

For example you can search for who has patented Aeroplanes, mobile design or even a blouse

Simple registration request and response parsing and object representation

This module contains objects representing simple registration requests and responses that can be used with both OpenID relying parties and OpenID providers.

  1. The relying party creates a request object and adds it to the AuthRequest object before making the checkid_ request to the OpenID provider:
    auth_request.addExtension(SRegRequest(required=['email']))
  2. The OpenID provider extracts the simple registration request from the OpenID request using SRegRequest.fromOpenIDRequest, gets the user’s approval and data, creates a SRegResponse object and adds it to the id_res response:
    sreg_req = SRegRequest.fromOpenIDRequest(checkid_request.message)
    # [ get the user's approval and data, informing the user that
    #   the fields in sreg_response were requested ]
    sreg_resp = SRegResponse.extractResponse(sreg_req, user_data)
    sreg_resp.toMessage(openid_response.fields)
  3. The relying party uses SRegResponse.fromSuccessResponse to extract the data from the OpenID response:
    sreg_resp = SRegResponse.fromSuccessResponse(success_response)

Ranking Factors::Google Keywords Search Engine

2

Category : SEO

Keyword use in Title Tag
This is the major factor effecting the targeted search term or phrase in the title tag
Google weighs the title tag very strongly, a good title can increase you CTR . This is one of the best ways to attract search engines and attract visitors too.
Keyword use in Domain Name
Including the targeted keyword in the domain name (e.g. keyword.com)
You are a luck person if you owe a keyword domain, as you will be blessed with visitors, search and web crawlers,
Keyword use in Anchor Tags
Including the targeted keyword in the anchor tags. Keywords in anchor tags are for some years an important criterion of the Google algorithm.
Keyword use in Body Text
Using the targeted search term in the visible, HTML text of the page
It is important to use keyword phrases throughout the page where it makes sense.
Keyword use in Page URL
Including target terms in the webpage URL (e.g. example.com/keyword-phrase). The URL for the pages should be restful (SEO friendly).
Keyword use in H1 Tags
Creating an H1 tag with the targeted search term/phrase. The use of H1 tags is very overrated and often abused.
Keyword use in H2, H3, H(x) Tags
Placing targeted terms in the H2, H3 headline HTML tags
Keyword use in Images Alt and Title Attributes

Keyword use in Description Meta Tag
Utilizing keywords in the description meta tag in a webpages HTML header
Keyword use in Bold/Strong Tags
Positioning keywords in HTML text with strong/bold tags
Keyword use in Keywords Meta Tag

Microsoft Analytics Is Shutting Down

Category : Information

 

Microsoft has announced that they will shut down Microsoft Analytics platform. The date decided for this is  December 31st 2009 and Microsoft plans to re-direct existing clients to services like Google Analytics, Yahoo Analytics and others.

After swapping out Ian, the smart lead person of the product last year, this doesn’t really come to a surprise to me. The entire product wasn’t thought through or planned out. Even the existing version still had and has major issues and was always released with major delays.

Last flaw, which personally bothered me, was the upgrade to a version, which runs solely on MS Silverlight.  Overall it’s really unfortunate to see Microsoft dropping another promising product. Especially since it was connected directly with MS’s Adcenter.

Category : General, Information, PHP, Product Releases

I was just wondering how google has progressed from its search engine to creating new icons for IT world. One of them was the google reader, i found this very interesting how the google reader caters to everybody needs. I am working on doctors & surgeons social networking site, there the client came up with an idea to implement google reader in the project to show users about the updates that they have in their baskets. I was chosen to create a POC(Proof of Concepts) for that. I took that as a challenge and created one very basic version of it. Here i would like to share with you the POC and the code.
