Google.com is experimenting with many things lately! I have just noticed that Google search has started prompting users for specific keywords as and when we enter the paricular keyword to search.  Of course Yahoo has been doing this since long, but Googl.com following it was least expected. In any case, better now then never!

Google Search

This is a good feature though. Many a times i am searching for Russian sportstars or Italian celebrities and i always end up mis-spelling the name. So this feature is going to be a time saver. Good you adopted this add on Big G. Not innovative but still welcome!

Alright, moving on. Well Google has already announced that it will be retiring Google Adsense Referrals during last week of August, which should happen anytime now. Many webmasters are feeling little emotional saying goodbye to good old referrals. But hey, i am not that bothered, simply because Adsense Referrals had already been retired in all countries except Japan, North America and Latin America, since early January’2008. So i bid’em farewell in beginning of year 2008!

New Adsense For Feeds

Other than Adsense Referrals, we did notice New and Improved Adsense for Search few weeks back.  It was followed by Adsense for YouTube units or Adsense Video Units. And then there was this Adsense for Mobile Content which i have really never used. Now comes the Adsense for RSS Feeds. Wow… Google is really onto webmasters now! It just keeps on getting better and better! I really liked the concept of Adsense for RSS feeds. They are placed in the feeds itself. You can place adsense units after every one feed or once in the whole feed. However i am yet to figure it out completely, simply because my account at feedburner is different from the account at Google. They are not migrating the accounts now, but when they should do it, i am sure to go ahead and get this units on my feeds.

Anyways, i also searched for the thug of Georgetown and a plastic surgeon, Dr. Stephen Baker. Google is doing a wonderful thing by ranking my post on Page 1 for his name. I just wish i can rank number one for his name so that he can realize why scammers should not mess with webmasters. Pity!

Alright….that’s all the latest i have got on Google. Keep Googling and keep visiting my blog for some more useless stuff

You heard that right. Now you can change the looks of probably all big sites by just using Firefox.

If you do not know what Firefox is or if you do not have it then first of all i pity you! Secondly, i think i should help you get one. Click on this foxie and download this wonderful browser. >>>>

Anyways, what all you need is a firefox addon named Stylish. Install it, Enable it and then restart your Firefox browser!

Once you have restarted your browser, you need to visit Userstyles.org. You will find stylesheets for many applications and websites. Browse your way through and find stylesheets of all the websites you visit to.

I have redesigned the looks of GMail, Google Images, YouTube, Wikipedia, Firefox About Blank Page, Yahoo! and many others… There is such a long list on userstyles.org, you can really find every major site in there!

Installation Instruction: Just visit the desired website’s style page and click on “Load into Stylish”. That’s it. Once you again visit that site again, all the looks will be changed!

I am adding screenshots of some sites which i stylized. Here are few of them:

Clearly, as you can see, i am a lover of dark colored themes. You can find many more themes in userstyles.org. I am not sure, perhaps there maybe other websites providing these stylesheets, will have to find out!

Anyways, there is nothing stopping you now from redesigning your favorite websites like Google, Yahoo, Orkut, Facebook etc! Go Crazy and have fun!
