Google Suggest news Roundup

Since the talk about google suggest has slowed down, it is a good time for a little link roundup.

The /. article which links to the authors blog entry.
A lot of people were amazed by Google suggest, the technolgy has been around for quite a while and has been implemented in the “live search” feature on bitflux blog among other places.

The “Hacking Google” blog entry gives a simple explaination of the interface, and has whipped up some PHP code which uses the interface. Another hack is the Google Alphabet, which automatically builds the table based on the most popular hits for each alphabet letter. A proof-of-concept firefox extension has also been whipped up which implements google suggest in your firefox search. More details here.

As far as the actual “searching” goes, there is no real time searching involved, the data is simply drawn from the prebuilt database of common words and phrases. This database is obviously neutered in the suggestions that it gives. The words ‘porn‘ and ‘sex‘ do not give any suggestions. Goat, however, is right on the spot.

Finally, if you’re looking to implement a feature like this using javascript and PHP, Harry Fuecks Jspan will get you up and running in no time at all!

    Hello and well met! Friday I was of the opinion that Google Suggest news Roundup was a really good concept. But after reading more about Pfaltzgraff, I\’m not so sure… What do you think?

    If you haven’t heard of a fund of funds, you might think it is just a redundancy. The truth is a fund of funds has some important advantages and disadvantages that you need to be aware of. A fund of funds is exactly what it sounds like. It is a mutual fund that invests in other mutual funds. At first it may seem silly to you, but here are some big advantages to investing in a fund of funds:

    Double Diversification -A mutual fund diversifies across many different stocks. A fund of funds diversifies amongst many different funds.

    Simplicity -Instead of investing in many different funds to achieve the same result, you can just invest in one fund. This allows for much less paperwork.

    Cheap for Beginning Investors -It is tough to diversify when starting out because of account minimums. A fund of funds allows for an investor to diversify amongst hundreds or thousands of stocks in one small account.

    Institutional Advantages -Funds of funds can often invest in desirable institutional funds that are off-limits for retail investors. They also have the ability to invest in some load funds without paying the load.
