  <title>Android G1 emulator</title>
  <description><![CDATA[For those wanting a better idea of what it'd be like to own one of HTC's new Google Android G1 phones, here's an <a href="http://tmobile.modeaondemand.com/htc/g1/">emulator</a>. <br />
<br />
How does it compare to the Apple iPhone?<br /><br />Tags: <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Google_Android" rel="tag">Google Android</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/G1" rel="tag">G1</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Apple_iPhone" rel="tag">Apple iPhone</a>]]></description>

  <title>Google Mail</title>
  <description><![CDATA[Gmail users might be interested to have a look around Settings -&gt; Labs to find add-ons the Gmail team (and also 3rd party developers) have made. Some of them could potentially be fairly useful, though one or two are slightly unusual... For example, "Mail Goggles" will pose some maths questions before a late night email is sent just to make sure that it's not something you'll regret the next day... Hmmm.<br />
<br />
Now Gmail just have to sort out filtering the really obvious junk mail that creeps into my inbox everyday. They used to be so good. Come on!<br /><br />Tags: <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Google" rel="tag">Google</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/idea" rel="tag">idea</a>]]></description>

  <title>iPhone vs G1</title>
  <description><![CDATA[Further to a <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/posts/t-mobile_g1_and_android_market">previous post</a>, it looks like Android does still have downsides. Unlike the iPhone there is no PAYG yet, and the headphone jack is non-standard. It also looks like they're going to do the usual thing of ripping off UK customers by charging them a contract rate of &pound;40 per month (c.f. $30 in US).<br />
<br />
No answers yet on whether they can differentiate themselves by allowing users access to the internet from a laptop, and whether VOIP apps like Skype can be run...<br /><br />Tags: <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Apple" rel="tag">Apple</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/iPhone" rel="tag">iPhone</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Google_Android" rel="tag">Google Android</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/G1" rel="tag">G1</a>]]></description>

  <title>T Mobile G1 and Android market</title>
  <description><![CDATA[Details of Google's answer to Apple's iPhone, the G1, are emerging. Sounds like its camera will be 3MP (that's 50% more) and will also include a compass. Nothing to rave about yet but the price sounds like it could be reasonable too at around $200. No decision's been made yet but I'm glad I resisted and didn't buy the iPhone the other day! Android market will also surely be more open than the App Store... The manufacturers are HTC, a Taiwanese company - another thing in their favour!<br /><br />Tags: <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Google_Android" rel="tag">Google Android</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/G1" rel="tag">G1</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Apple_iPhone" rel="tag">Apple iPhone</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/HTC" rel="tag">HTC</a>]]></description>

  <title>Google Chrome</title>
  <description><![CDATA[It's an internet browser. It's fast. It's made by Google. So great, why don't we all start using it? Well, Mac OS X users haven't got a version made for them yet and fans of the Google Toolbar won't switch because it simply isn't there in Chrome... an obvious omission!<br /><br />Tags: <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Google" rel="tag">Google</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Chrome" rel="tag">Chrome</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Firefox" rel="tag">Firefox</a>]]></description>

  <title>Google Newspaper</title>
  <description><![CDATA[Checking Google's robots.txt file, the file that tells other search engines what part of a website they can or cannot index, sometimes throws up interesting hints as to what might be coming next. Today a new entry has appeared under "newspaper".

  <title>Keep track of Beijing Olympics 2008</title>
  <description><![CDATA[Google have made a useful <a href="http://www.google.com/landing/summergames2008/index.html">tool</a> to track the many events at this year's summer Olympics.<br />

Btw, wasn't the opening ceremony brilliant?! I'm thinking London 2012 might struggle past having a penny farthing and some chubby monarchs!<br /><br />Tags: <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Google" rel="tag">Google</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Olympics" rel="tag">Olympics</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/London_2012" rel="tag">London 2012</a>]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Google have just done a pagerank update. If you have the Google toolbar installed you should see that Nimisis.com is back to PR4. Same for PriceCutReview.com and Sport.omani.ac.

  <title>Google search by date indexed</title>
  <description><![CDATA[There are still some searches for which Google isn't too brilliant. For example, you can't search for certain special characters and you can't look for files (other than images) by filesize. However, there is a fantastic new improvement - you can now find pages by the date they were added to the Google index. This is very useful because sometimes it's hard to tell when a page was written - not all pages are like press releases and have a date on them! So, if you want to filter out old news or maybe see which pages have been recently indexed for a particular site, you can by adding the "as_qdr" parameter. Append your seach with "&as_qdr=1d" for pages found in the last 24 hours, "&as_qdr=1w" for the past week and "&as_qdr=1y" for the last year. (The 1's can be adjusted to any number and therefore length of time you like).<br />
<br />
For example, to find new pages that have been talking about a pagerank update, you might search: <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=pagerank+update&as_qdr=d1">http://www.google.com/search?q=pagerank+update&as_qdr=d1</a> or what new software has been added to a download site in the last week: <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=site:download.omani.ac&as_qdr=w1">http://www.google.com/search?q=site:download.omani.ac&as_qdr=w1</a>.<br /><br />Tags: <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/Google" rel="tag">Google</a>, <a href="http://www.nimisis.com/tags/hack" rel="tag">hack</a>]]></description>
