  • How to create (nice) charts

    Posted on Thursday May 22nd, 2008 at 13:36 in programming

    NOTE this is an old post I wrote more than 6 months ago. I haven’t finished it and I am not planning to finish it. I am posting it to see if someone is interested. If there is some interest I will go on. (I know how it will end.. :-) ) —&...

  • Shoe wins and IE loses

    Posted on Thursday November 1st, 2007 at 08:18 in programming

    Even with today’s stats Shoemoney beat John Chow. If you are watching my site with Internet Explorer you’ll see some weird position for the posts. I am sorry but I have no idea why it happens. I know that the chart’s html code must...

  • Shoemoney is the winner

    Posted on Wednesday October 31st, 2007 at 05:23 in programming

    Apparently. If they take today as the last day of the competition, Shoemoney beat John Chow by more than 2000 readers and 10% more gain. If they use Feedburner dates, we have to wait until tomorrow because FB stats are from yesterday (see my table d...

  • Charts: John Chow vs Shoemoney

    Posted on Monday October 22nd, 2007 at 06:18 in programming

    John Chow is humiliating Shoemoney with this competition. He’s leading in any way. If you check data from their starting values ( 8585 for John and 10833 for Jeremy), Mr Chow is winning. Even if you check the official values for the 1st Octobe...

  • Oops I did it again. Feedburner top 100

    Posted on Monday September 17th, 2007 at 04:05 in programming, content creation

    I am dumb. Instead of doing some test first, I started my crawler with the wrong functionality. Remember last week when I said that I was looking for the wrong links? Well I did a mistake again. Go and check the stats page again. Instead of looking f...

  • Nafurai Tag List update

    Posted on Thursday September 13th, 2007 at 16:24 in programming, content creation

    I’m sooo sleepy :( but I wanted to tell the (few) readers that I’ve updated the look of beta.nafurai.com. I’m sleepy, so I totally forgot to update the l&f of the first pages. To see any difference you should look at the Tag pa...

  • Top 100 Feedburner sites on my Blog List

    Posted on Tuesday September 11th, 2007 at 06:16 in programming, content creation

    My beta version of the “unnamed” blog search/directory is going on very slowly. One of the thing that stopped me on these days are the Databases. Plural. I am using two distinct databases, as every search engine do. They probably use more...

  • Blog Research is online!

    Posted on Monday September 10th, 2007 at 06:22 in programming, content creation

    Since I don’t have 10000s of readers, I think I can safely post about it.\nIf you head to beta.nafurai.com you’ll see my (pre)alpha version of it.\nI know, the site is called Beta, but the reason is that I haven’t found a Alpha bann...

  • Clicky API is out of beta

    Posted on Monday September 10th, 2007 at 05:06 in programming

    Clicky API is out of beta and my Top10 widget is now useless. At least if you are using the basic service like me. If you use the Premium, you should be able to see a full 30 day list. Otherwise the list should be Today’s Top10 or YesterdayR...

  • Mosaic of Photos with MyBlogLog users

    Posted on Monday September 3rd, 2007 at 15:16 in programming, content creation

    Several month ago I was wondering how to attract people to my blog. I remember reading a lot of tricks about link baiting and stuff like that. I usually don’t like to act like a sheep and beg for links in a stupid way; I prefer the creative way...

  • Unicode and ASCII: Busy Day again

    Posted on Thursday August 30th, 2007 at 11:25 in programming

    Sorry, no post yesterday and no post today (apart for this one). I am really busy looking for a job & improving my Java Crawler. You’ll never imagine how difficult is to read thousand of different websites and try to get precise stuff from...

  • Have fun with Ebay’s API

    Posted on Thursday August 23rd, 2007 at 07:43 in programming

    Today I’m having fun with Ebay. As 99% of big web services, they provide an API. An API (Application Program Interface) is a “way” to connect to their work. Most of the time a Web Site’s API is in form of web service.They give...

  • Blog Research: Programming

    Posted on Tuesday August 7th, 2007 at 13:44 in programming

    I am planning to give more details on how my Blog Research Software is made in order to get more people attracted to the art of programming. :-) I think everyone could build a simple “Blog Reader” to gather some information, just for fun...

  • Blog Research: recognizing Wordpress

    Posted on Wednesday July 11th, 2007 at 06:40 in programming

    I’m going on with my Blog research. Right now my app is running. I’m parsing all the sites on my Database to find out WordPress Blogs. My newest technique is simple. I add “/wp-admin/” to any url and I see if the page exists....

  • Busy Day aka How to detect WordPress

    Posted on Wednesday July 4th, 2007 at 13:19 in programming

    Today I had too much to do with my Sites Database. Btw… I should find a name for that project. :-) Anyway I got a bit of traffic from StumbleUpon..almost 300 users but no one left an useful comment. Richard and some other guy around the net gav...

  • Gathering information from blogs

    Posted on Monday July 2nd, 2007 at 04:05 in programming

    Lately I have been busy building a Java application to get data from sites. I’m browsing sites around the net to create a database of sites, mainly blogs. The goal is to build some kind of statistic about the blogs or whatever comes to my mind....

  • Clicky and Performancing widgets

    Posted on Friday June 29th, 2007 at 04:00 in programming

    Two days ago Clicky published their own API together with a contest. The contest is simple: write something with their API (well, it’s a bit more complicated..). Performancing did the same thing..probably because they are using the very same co...
