Cablesearch: Well, This Will Get Some Attention

December 8, 2010

Short honk: One of my handful of readers sent me a link to a search engine for Wikileaks’ cables. I have seen a cable for a long time. In fact, the last time I saw a cable, I was getting a demo of a system that allowed cable operators to see horoscopes and lists of top 40 songs. Not yesterday exactly. More like 1974.

If you want to search Wikileaks’ cables, point your browser thingy at http://cablesearch.org. I don’t know how long this service will be online. I don’t want to hazard a guess. Lots of folks are agitated about Wikileaks so the goose will remain in Harrod’s Creek and maintain his interest in search technology. Seems like a wise move.
