New Feature: Search

Wed, 06/03/2009 - 11:18pm — senh

You may have noticed a search bar at the top the page. It's brand spanking new. It searches the top newspaper sites (CNN, NY Times), aggregation sites (Google News, Digg), blog search sites (Twitter, Technorati), and video sites (YouTube, Hulu) for any news topic and lays them out like a newspaper rack. Now, you can instantly get the latest news and buzz on any news topic. Here are some examples:

Barack Obama

  • "Storm The Gates" Mobile Game
    My friends just launched a mobile game called "Storm the Gates"! It's available on both Android and iOS. I'm not much of a gamer, so I didn't know what to do when I started it. But my 9-year-old son turned it on and knew exactly what to do. More
  • "Ip Man 3" Has New Release Date in China and Posters to Prove It
    Over at MoviesWithButter.com, I’ve written two articles regarding “Ip Man 3,” the film that’s holding its own in Asian territories against “Star Wars: The Force Awakens.” If you’re not familiar with Asian cinema,”Ip Man” one of the most popular franchises in that area of the world. More
  • Live-Blogged The Golden Globes at MWB
    Yesterday, I live-blogged The Golden Globes -- for various reasons. First, it gets traffic. Second, I might as well do something useful while watching TV. Lastly, I was looking forward to seeing Ricky Gervais host the event again. Nothing against Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, but he’s my favorite. A google search revealed that the last time I did this for this award show was More
  • Kings vs. Mavs: Ominous Stats, News for Sacramento Before Game
    The preview on NBA.com and the injury report from SactownRoyalty.com don’t look good for the Sacramento Kings going into tonight’s game against the playoff-bound Dallas Mavericks. More
  • What?! Kings Beat Thunder, 116-104
    (Image from the Sacramento Bee. Click here to view more images from the game.) What a win. It was a wild one, especially in the first half. We [Sacramento Kings] were down by 17 in the first quarter. In frustration, I was about to turn off the TV, but the teaml called a timeout. More

  • Want Your Articles on Google Instantaneously? Digg it.
    I'm just starting to submit stories from my blog to Digg, hoping against hope that they'll get some Digg love and drive some traffic back here. So far, no luck. The only Digg love my blog entries get is from me - and ONLY me. More
  • Betaworks' Digg Relaunch Has One Fatal Mistake
    Betaworks bought Digg, the website, for about half a million. It’s a complicated sale. Linkedin acquired the patents, and Washington Post got the talent (the engineers). The first thing Betaworks did was relaunch the site on August 1st. I noticed because their RSS feeds stopped working on Wopular. More
  • Finally, Replaced Digg with Reddit
    I finally had to do it. I stuck with Digg for as long as I could. It’s the first social news site. Even after the infamous version 4, I stuck with them. A decent number of Digg's hardcore users had already jumped ship since v4. More
  • AddThis Removes "via @addthis" Suffix in Tweets
    I just noticed in the last couple of days that the sharing platform AddThis has removed “via @addthis” at the end of tweets using their widget. I use AddThis throughout the site. It’s a handy little widget that allows users to share articles through any social bookmarking/sharing site, like Facebook, Twitter, StumbleUpon and Pinterest. As a website owner, I use it to tweet articles to my Twitter account. More
  • Finally Replaced Buzz with Google Plus Page
    I finally found some time to replace the now deprecated Google Buzz with Google Plus. And it's probably a waste of time, but I'm just doing it out of completeness. My personal Google Plus account has turned into a ghost town, just as soon as Buzz. More
