The Turtle Moves Forward a Little

August 12, 2009

The blogosphere lit up when Google announced its Caffeine project was available for the hoi polloi. I looked at the prattlings and decided to point you to PCWorld’s FAQ for this giant turtle step for the Google. Read “Google Caffeine FAQ: Your Questions Answered” and give the turtle step a spin at http://www2.sandbox.google.com. The Google has more tricks up its sleeve. No point in getting ahead of the azure chip consultants, however. The applications of sparse tables to the programmable search engine are not as easy to grasp as a sandbox open to anyone with a browser. To see content, not a results list, navigate to the Sand box and run a query for Beyond Search. Click on Microsoft. Answers without a results list. Nifty. The function has been available from big Google for a while, but it is one example of Google’s cleverness.
