[DQSD-Users] Mailinator Search

2003-09-20 Thread Dean Wilson
I've put together a search that allows you to open www.mailinator.com at a
specified mailbox. Mailinator, for those of you who have yet to abuse its
service, accepts email to ANY address without any prior warning.

You can then go and retrieve any email in any mailbox you want. One of its
best uses is for sites that want an email before they let you in or allow
downloads but spam the heck out of you afterwards. Using mailinator they
never get any useful addresses. The official FAQ can be found here:
http://www.mailinator.com/mailinator/Faq.do

I've called the search mailinate so you can still Google for mailinator
(and because i have a local alias set up to make it nice and short :)) My
only problem is which category it should come under... Any suggestions?

[DQSD-Users] XRL Shorten URL 'search'

2003-08-29 Thread Dean Wilson
I've written a simple plugin for the xrl.us Metamark Shorten Service (the
site can be reached at either http://xrl.us or http://metamark.net/ but the
shortened links point to xrl.us to save characters.)

There is already a MakeAShorterLink plugin so i don't know if its worth
including both in the DQSD distro, i use xrl.us for other things as it has
a number of bindings available so i thought I'd write it for my own use if
nothing else.

At the moment I've set the search description up as xrl.us: Metamark
Shorten Service rather than the other way around as it's easier for me to
remember, if it'd be better the other way around let me know and I'll
change it.

[DQSD-Users] The Webpoll Search...

2003-06-07 Thread Dean Wilson
I contributed is unfortunately no longer working. The company that was
running it has been acquired and the UK technical operations have been
pretty much shut down, this includes both the webpoll software and myself.
From what I've been told it looks extremely unlikely that it will be coming
back so it would probably make sense to remove it from the next release if
that's possible.



Sorry about this and any work it causes.

Dean

[DQSD-Users] Perldoc Search - first version

2003-06-04 Thread Dean Wilson
After spending some time looking for an excuse to try out the Dave's Quick
Search Deskbar Search Wizard (Verdict: very cool!) i decided to build a
search for the online perldoc repository (located at
http://www.perldoc.com/ not surprisingly.) Which allows you to search the
built in functions in Perl by version number, something which saves me
having a bundle of different documentation packages installed on all my
machines.

In the doc examples I've shown something i thought would save a couple of
keystrokes, the version number can be anything from a verbose /perl5.6.0
to a terse and more perlish /56

I've attached a working draft of the search but i have a couple of
questions for the list:

1. Should this kind of search live in the Computers-programming section or
the Computer-reference section? The existing language references (PHP and
Javascript) live in programming so I've done the same but i thought i
should ask.

2. I've used a bundle of separate cases in the switch statement, is there a
better way of doing this in Javascript such as maybe regexps in the case
statements?

The search itself has been working fine for me but while i was putting it
together i had some problems with the javascript switch/case statements, it
seemed to be matching strings like 'perl5.6' at the case perl5.6.1 code,
presumably it matched the substring and stopped there so I've altered the
order of the statement around a bit and its working but it seems a bit
kludgy. If any one knows a better way to do this I'd appreciate the
feedback.

HTH and thanks for keeping DQSD such a valuable tool.

[DQSD-Users] Site Performance addin

2002-09-11 Thread Dean Wilson

Hello list
  I've put together a small search that uses a serverside app called
WebPoll to show the timings of 'objects' on a webpage. I wrote it for work
purposes (I work for the site owners WebPerform and it made sense to add it
to the toolbar as i use both frequently) and thought i'd share it
considering how useful the other searches have been to me.

If anything needs to be modifed to make it more useful or any
improvements/fixes need to be put in all feedback is welcome.
