  <title>Google search by date indexed</title>
  <description><![CDATA[There are still some searches for which Google isn't too brilliant. For example, you can't search for certain special characters and you can't look for files (other than images) by filesize. However, there is a fantastic new improvement - you can now find pages by the date they were added to the Google index. This is very useful because sometimes it's hard to tell when a page was written - not all pages are like press releases and have a date on them! So, if you want to filter out old news or maybe see which pages have been recently indexed for a particular site, you can by adding the "as_qdr" parameter. Append your seach with "&as_qdr=1d" for pages found in the last 24 hours, "&as_qdr=1w" for the past week and "&as_qdr=1y" for the last year. (The 1's can be adjusted to any number and therefore length of time you like).<br />
<br />
For example, to find new pages that have been talking about a pagerank update, you might search: <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=pagerank+update&as_qdr=d1">http://www.google.com/search?q=pagerank+update&as_qdr=d1</a> or what new software has been added to a download site in the last week: <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=site:download.omani.ac&as_qdr=w1">http://www.google.com/search?q=site:download.omani.ac&as_qdr=w1</a>.<br /><br />Tags: <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Google" rel="tag">Google</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/hack" rel="tag">hack</a>]]></description>

  <title>Google Pagerank Update January 2008</title>
  <description><![CDATA[It's happening... the Google servers are giving different numbers for PR, so I'm guessing we're in the middle of another update!<br /><br />Tags: <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/pagerank" rel="tag">pagerank</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/webmaster" rel="tag">webmaster</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Google" rel="tag">Google</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/seo" rel="tag">seo</a>]]></description>

  <title>Astronomy with Google Earth</title>
  <description><![CDATA[The latest version of Google Earth has a new feature which allows you to flip the default view (looking down upon satellite imagery of the earth) to looking up at imagery of the night sky gathered from telescopes.<br />
<br />
No longer do you have to buy a telescope from ebay to do some star gazing (a bit pointless anyway if you live in an area with bad light pollution). Seeing all those billions of stars does make you feel pretty small though!<br /><br />Tags: <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Google_Earth" rel="tag">Google Earth</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/astronomy" rel="tag">astronomy</a>]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[If you own a website and have lately been trying to <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/software/ranker.php">improve your Google PageRank</a>, you might be interested to know that the website rankings are now just starting to change. Keep watching that PageRank button on your Google Toolbar for, hopefully, a higher number!<br /><br />Tags: <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/seo" rel="tag">seo</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/webmaster" rel="tag">webmaster</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Google" rel="tag">Google</a>]]></description>

  <title>New Google Groups</title>
  <description><![CDATA[<img src="http://groups.google.com/groups/img/3/groups_bar.gif" height="26" width="132" alt="Google Groups Beta" align="right"/>I've set up a couple of Google groups for some of the <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/software.php">software</a> I've written, namely <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/projects/flix.php">Flix</a> and <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/projects/warp.php">Warp</a>. (Their respective groups are <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/webcam-flix">here</a> and <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/warp-photos">here</a>.) These two applications are particularly well suited to have their own group or forum as Flix is about making timelapse videos and Warp is about making funny photos, so I'm hoping that folk will feel free to share their creations!<br /><br />Tags: <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/software" rel="tag">software</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Google" rel="tag">Google</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Flix" rel="tag">Flix</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Warp" rel="tag">Warp</a>]]></description>

  <title>Online world geography quiz</title>
  <description><![CDATA[My ignorance when it comes to geography is truly shocking and I've been meaning to do something about it. So, here's a little <a href="http://mashup.omani.ac/google_maps/geography_quiz.php">world geography quiz</a> Google Maps mashup I've whipped up using the Google Maps API. Hopefully you'll learn a few things with it! I'd certainly never heard of the tiny island nation of <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitcairn_Islands">Pitcairn</a> (population 53) before today...<br /><br />Tags: <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/geography" rel="tag">geography</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Google_Maps" rel="tag">Google Maps</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/mashup" rel="tag">mashup</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/project" rel="tag">project</a>]]></description>

  <title>Picasa</title>
  <description><![CDATA[Recently tried out Google's photo organisation app, Picasa and I've got to say that I'm impressed. Some old school photos in the depths of my hard drive were found which I'm sure I would've lost otherwise. If this grabs you, take the tour via the banner below.<br />
