Content Construction Kit Handbook

Getting Started with CCK

There is not much new in Bing. “Bing is a new chassis with same old engine”. What Microsoft did was to give it a new name, new face and decorate it with some interesting thing to make it look like new “stuff” and they topped it up with publicity to push it as a new search engine.

The presentation is attractive, well much more attractive than Google’s simple (boring) look.

I like the way they display the background image and stuff in some interesting facts at various spot.

The footer also displays some interesting articles from wiki.

However all of above are kind of distraction for searchers. Whenever I go to search for something I get deviated by other links. No wonder why Google still enjoys the No.1 position because of the most simple fact that it is just Search Engine.

I wish Bing was just as Google – Search Engine. However Microsoft never gives up in stuffing in as much elements of their network as possible in almost all of their services and which ultimately becomes a flop show.

Search Results

It seems more or less Bing displays the same result as Google. A search for my own name Ajay Kumar Singh on Bing shows this blog as No. 1, same as it shows on Google.

Bing favors its own community and if you have signed up in community then it might shows up details from there as well. I’m signed up for Community and it shows my profile page in the first page for my name search.

Bing’s country specific search is not so relevant and not as good as Google’s one. I searched for keyword SEO to display searches from UK only and couldn’t find my business website in top 10 where as it is on top 10 on Google for UK search results.

New Features

Bing has added some of new features. For instance on the right side of title you can see the latest posts from the blog.

What lacks

Bing doesn’t allow to display more than 10 results per page until and unless you login and change the it from the account settings. in Google you can exactly change it to display up to 100 results per page without logging into account. I use this feature quite heavily for my SEO work and I wish Bing could also provide this feature.

Domain name search doesn’t work. For instance if you type swamiseo.co.uk it will not display any result and it would rather suggest swamiseo keyword. In Google you would see the pages which link to swamiseo.co.uk

Country specific searches

Bing simply doesn’t show relevant result in country specific searches. Well it is still in Beta so we can’t expect all the features in it. Lets see when it builds up enough capability to show localized searches.

Image Searches

Image search in Bing is not as improved as it is in Google. Bing displays Image search results in iframe which is nuisance. It also doesn’t show the source of image until and unless you hover over the image.

Image results in Google are much better, simplified and display relevant information.

It seems bing image indexing is not sophisticated enough to build up a large database of images. Bing displays images from well known and big websites rather than well optimized small websites.

What is Good

Ever wonder why Google shows wiki in the top of search result for any keyword which has got an entry in Wiki? It is just sheer insanity.

Let me explain with an example. Visit Google.co.in and enter keyword Laptop and see the result. Google displays news items (useless) followed by Wiki (another useless result). When someone types keyword Laptop he is not interested in Google News or in Wiki, all he wants is to find out the latest laptops and probably to buy it.

Google loves Wiki.

Bing doesn’t love wiki so it doesn’t show up all the time.

Bing has to improve the search result display a lot to match with Google’s search. It shows Wiki which is completely irrelevant for the searched keyword.

I wonder what these people really trying to test?

Try to sovle them…

1) Google Account CAPTCHA

Any idea what the letters are?

Lets try

muronfors ???

muromfors ???

2) Yahoo Buzz CAPTCHA

What is the 2nd letter here after 5 and before J?

Is there a word at all? If it is there then it is not visible. So what is the purpose of CAPTCHA to see invisible?

3) phpbb3 CAPTCHA taken from a Mozilla Thunderbird Forum

This one is another bummer…

What is 2nd letter? A + sign?

Or a flying aeroplane?

4) Gumtree CAPTCHA

I encountered this funny one on gumtree.com

This one is technically incorrect.

How?

In reCAPTCHA you have 2 words, here the first word is missing.

The correct word is just dune which worked. First word is lost somewhere.

I wanted to record a video off tv news today and found myself lost after I couldn’t find how to record video. A quick search on the Internet reveled the mystery that old device is not capable of recording video.

The good news is that you can still record video in old Blackberry 8230 smartphone. Video recording comes as default in new Blackberry 8230 smartphones.

In order to record video on Blackberry 8230 all you have to do is to upgrade the Blackberry Device Software to the latest version which is 4.5.

To upgrade the device software visit the following link, click on Update and follow the instructions.

Upgrade Blackberry 8230 Smartphone Device Software

The upgrade link will install Application Loader, once application loader is installed you will have to connect the device and click on Update Now button again on the above link and it will automatically start upgrading.

If you are lost then drop me message in comment.

Make sure popup is enabled in browser.

It took me nearlly 2 hours to update the device software.

Here is their Bummer and I just can’t stop being furious on what they have wrote and have propogated all over the world.

Here is the scanned page full with deformed propaganda to prove that world’s greatest and most ancient civilization with one of the most ancient ALIVE language, Sanskrit, didn’t have a national language. What a pathetic way to fool the rest of world in 21st century.

Wake up guys, Joseph Goebbels is long dead and it’s not WWII.

Holy Cow!!!!

And Colourful Gods

Thanks to Lois Arthur and Rob Nolasco, two well known western writers, who never stop screwing up the true facts about India. These guys teach children and adult all over the world and also write books to educate the world with English language and sometimes they also do social services to enlighten the world about India.

Below is the full page of the book which they wrote to educate children all over the world. Well done gentlemen!!!

If you are Indian and live in India you can’t miss Tatas, they are everywhere, inside your home, outside home, in water, in salt, in cars, trucks, you name it they are there.

They forgot that someone might be travelling abroad and for long time and that he might not be able to get new VISA card and that he obviously can’t use the old card and that his old card will be deactivated while he enjoy sun and that he is screwed.

I’m one of those unfortunate customers who got screwed up by HSBC (sic of them) Master->VISA switching fiasco.

A call to Customer Support, thru skype, landed up in (obviously) Hyderbad and a rude and tense Lakshmi disclosed the breaking news while I, hopelessly, tried to find a way out to get my old Maestro card reactivated.

At least they should have allowed customers to use old Maestro cards till they decided to use the new VISA card and get rid of old.

What a bunch of brainless bankers!!!!
