Yahoo Scout is... actually good?

Yahoo launched an AI search tool that does something different: inline links that flow with the text like actual hyperlinks. It feels like what search would look like if it was built around AI from the start, but still cared about sending you places.

Plex Collection Creator - Local Semantic Search with Transformers.js

Organizing a large media library into meaningful collections is harder than it sounds. With 1000+ movies, you need something smarter than keyword matching. "Star Wars: A New Hope" and "Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back" share a franchise, but a text search for "Star Wars" won't catch "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story" if the title varies. Movies about heists aren't all titled "heist." Thematic grouping requires understanding what movies are about, not just what they're called. The solution is sem

Cache Clearing

Google appears to hide away an important feature from its search engine—an easily accessible cache of search results. (It’s still there, if you know where to look.)

Find web references to the page you're looking at

I thought I'd share two small bookmarklets I've been using to find references for a page I'm looking at: * Web references: page * Web references: site To use them, drag each link to your browser toolbar. This will create a couple of buttons that you can click when you want to find more information about whatever page you're looking at; the first checks the full page URL, while the second just searches for the domain name of the site. At the moment both open Google Blog Search and Twitter se

Ubiquity für WordPress (ein Plugin)

Die beste Methode sich mit einer Sache zu beschäftigen ist, einen sinnvollen Anwendungsfall zu schaffen... Bei dem "näher beschäftigen" mit Ubiquity ist ein WordPress-Plugin rausgekommen :) Das WordPress-Plugin erstellt eine Ubiquity-Suche für das eigene Weblog (Quellcode) mit dem Command "search-" Das kann teilweise (wie im Falle meines Blogs: search-notizblog-a-private-weblog-written-by-matthias-pfefferle) ziemlich lang werden, was aber nicht...
