1Greasemonkey auto-update notification
One of the biggest advantages of an extension over a GreaseMonkey script is the possibility of automatic update notification for the user.

I then contacted the developer team and got a great fast response from Ian Kallen, and we've been looking [...]Continue reading: Technorati Greasemonkey script removed

1Web 2.0 and API’s: the case for Unlimited queries
Every self respecting search engine has one, loads of other sites have one, and lots of people are using them to make great new stuff: Application Programming Interfaces or API’s. There's a big 'but' on some of them though...

Want to see the Technorati rank and the number of inbound links for a page? I wrote a Greasemonkey script that shows you just that, it does that by opening the search page for the current URL on Technorati and finding those values on it.
The first implementation I did used a script on my server, [...]

2FeedBurner API fun
I've had some fun with the FeedBurner API in the past days, creating a graphic simulation from a blog's feed-readers history over the past year. It's rather elegant, I think, as it creates graphics which you can easily insert into your pages or posts, and will automatically update each time they're loaded.

13Favicons and your online brand
