Google Translate Gone Berzerk
I get a fair amount hits from Google Translate. And I usually take a look at the translated page, just for the fun of it. I was looking at such a translated page this morning and noticed something is wrong, very wrong. If you work at Google, please ...

Google Flavored Java?
(Via Miguel de Icaza) Stefano Mazzocchi: Today Google released the Android code and I took a serious look at its internals... and found the solution for the licensing problem. It's called Dalvik and it's the new name of Sun's worst nightmares. Dalvi...

Bloglines And Google Reader Side By Side
I'm not known to be a quick switcher. The reason is usually because switching means learning anew, and I'm a slow learner. And I usually am not motivated to learn new ways of doing things that I already know how to do the old way. This put me on the...

Re: Google Reader vs. Bloglines Market Share
Bob Lee: Apparently I'm not alone in my switch to Google Reader. Now that it started reporting subscriber counts, I see 34% of my subscribers use Google Reader while only 25% use Bloglines. Good news travels fast. I took a look at my log files and f...

Google Code Search: Good
I received multiple alerts about the newly available Google Code Search in the past few days. In keeping with past tradition of WeiqiGao.com, the first search I did on it is a self-referential one. And the result looks good: It's nice to know ...

JavaScript Still Doesn't Get Respect

Google Web Toolkit: Web Applications Just Got Harder
Oh the buzz. Oh the excitement. Oh the AJaX Gods has released their secret sauce with an Apache license. Google Web Toolkit allows one to develop AJaX web applications entirely in Java, and deploy as HTML/JavaScript. This confirms what I said 354 d...
