My perfect writing environment, part 2

Filed under: Technology, — bsag @ 02:09 PM

p. I don’t know, it’s like buses—you wait years for a “decent writing environment”:http://www.rousette.org.uk/mt-static/blog/archives/000357.html to come along, and then several are in development at the same time. Matt Gemmell at “Irate Scotsman”:http://www.scotlandsoftware.com/blog/index.php/dev/treatise/treatise.html has proposed a writing editor with the provisional name of ‘Treatise’. There’s a UI mock-up [“here”:http://www.scotlandsoftware.com/blog/index.php/dev/treatise/treatiseuimockup.html]. It seems to have all the proposed features I was looking for, as did the project “Nathan mentioned”:http://laddonline.com/ that he was thinking of pursuing (in the comments on the entry “I wrote in July”:http://www.rousette.org.uk/mt-static/blog/archives/000357.html on this subject). It will be really interesting to see what develops. Sorry—no pun intended there.

I’ve been Googlewhacked

Filed under: Random Mumblings, — bsag @ 02:08 PM

p. I had an exciting comment “posted to this blog”:http://www.rousette.org.uk/mt-static/blog/archives/000028.html today by [“Saddo”:http://davegorman.com], informing me that my site contains a [“Googlewhack(GoogleWhacking)”:http://www.googlewhack.com/]. For those of you not familiar with the term, a Googlewhack is exactly two words, which—when entered as a Google search—return exactly one result. Apparently (and I have tried it), but she’s a girl comes up as the only result for [“this particular search”:http://www.rousette.org.uk/mt-static/blog/archives/000028.html]! I’m not sure what this actually means, if anything. Perhaps I discuss a more diverse, obscure and almost totally unrelated set of topics than other websites.

p. Update: Obviously the heat as addled my brain. Earlier on, I actually listed the two search terms on this page, which would have broken the Googlewhack once Google had spidered this page. D’oh!
