Google apparently does a lot more fancy stuff behind the scenes of just matching your keywords than you would imagine. Some of this we can already see when it tries to give you suggestions when you type an error. A good article and video can be found here:

Now that Microsoft bought Wolfram Alpha you can bet that Google is trying to do a similar thing. Google calls this web application “Google Squared” and the beta version can be found here:
http://www.google.com/squared
If you search for instance for ‘planets’ the result is a nice grid with some usefull (or maybe not) facts about planets. It also includes some stars though. It looks like Wolfram Alpha returns the better quality results, but Google Squared is only Beta (even though Wolfram Alpha has Alpha in the name, it’s not), so we can expect more in the future. The nice thing is you can easily add and remove rows and columns and it will keep looking for the best matching data. And it’s integrated in the Google Document world, making it easy to save, share and export.
I like it. But try it out for yourself.

I had much fun at the office today with this application. You upload your photo and it tries to match you to lookalikes celebrities. Now I’m not too keen to look like anyone, and certainly not celebrities. But it’s much fun when you do it and watch it with a few people.

No that’s not a typo. I’m not a web designer. I can’t make beautiful websites easily. And I’ve used a ton of different website creation software. There are the obvious one’s like Coffeecup, Frontpage, Seamonkey and even oldies that I can’t remember the name of. This was in the time that Netscape was still out there. I’ve also dabbled with WebPlus and even Dreamweaver but found them too much hard work. The problem is that you have to create pages, menu’s, graphics, links, rss feeds, paste in scripts and it’s all disjointed. Where is this feature hidden, where can I find that, how do I do this. It’s allright if you make websites for a living but if you only do it every now and then, or if you do it as part of a marketing campaign or even service to others it’s a nightmare. Enter the solution…
