Techcrunch » Blog Archive » Digg Profile For Sale on eBay (-)

  • With all of the recent news about top Digg users being offered cash by Netscape to move over to their competing platform, I’m not surprised to see that someone has apparently placed their top 100 Digg profile up for sale on eBay.


    The auction, which started a few hours ago, is for the Digg username GeekForLife. The user has submitted 748 Digg stories, 39 of which have made it to the Digg home page. There are no bidders as of 4 pm PST on Sunday.

Configure NewsAlloy as default feedreader in Firefox 2.0



  • The Firefox 2.0 Beta 1 is out. One of the new features is choosing the default feed reader. You can choose from some web based feed readers like Bloglines, Google Reader, My Yahoo... This feature provides a tight integration of you feed reader with Firefox. For instance if you click the feed icon in the URL field of Firefox, you will be directly be taken to the subscribe page of your feed reader. Or if you are looking at a RSS/Atom feed you see something like this:



    I like this integration but unfortunately my feed reader NewsAlloy is not in the list. But a bit of googling revealed that it is easy to add new feed readers to Firefox. Here are the steps:

    1. Open a new Tab/Window and type 'about:config'.
    2. In the filter box type 'browser.contentHandlers'.
    3. You will see a bunch of entries like 'browser.contentHandlers.#.type'. These are the properties which define the feed readers appearing in the options screen you see above.
    4. To add NewsAlloy to the list you have to add three new string properties to the config. You can add a property by right clicking and choose New>String. Two dialog boxes will pop up one after the other asking for the name-value pair. Enter the following pairs:
       a. Name: browser.contentHandlers.types.3.title Value: NewsAlloy
            b. Name: browser.contentHandlers.types.3.type Value: application/vnd.mozilla.maybe.feed
       c. Name: browser.contentHandlers.types.3.uri Value: http://www.newsalloy.com/?act=default&pop=1&rss=%s
    Note: Replace the number 3 in the above with a number higher than the ones you find in the filtered list.

    5. Restart the browser and go to Tools>Options and click on 'Choose Feed Reader...' button and you will now see NewsAlloy with its Icon and all.

    You can replace the url in 4b with your favorite feed reader's subscribe url. The %s is where Firefox will put the feed url. Have fun!

Blue Dot: Why the name change? Blue.Us becomes Blue Dot

  • We'd rather be clear with people that we're Blue Dot because it's a better name with actual significance to all of us who work here. To my knowledge, there are two stories behind the name Blue Dot:

    1) The earth looks like a Blue Dot from space. We like the idea that we're making the earth more navigable for our users.

    2) A Dot is the smallest and simplest usability experience available. We want Dotting to be non-intrusive and simple.

://URLFAN - Ranking sites in the Web 2.0 world

  • Unlike Alexa, there is no approximating in our ranking system since we're using concrete data to generate the results. Some important factors to note when using Alexa, according to their disclaimer : Alexa only measures sites visited by Internet Explorer, overcounts sites like Amazon, and only counts sites visited by surfers using Windows. You can probably guess that as the web shifts from IE/Win setups to competing browers and operating systems, a more accurate way to to measure popularity is needed. - ycc2106 on 2006-05-28
