Sunspot: A Solr-Powered Search Engine for Ruby
,----[ Quote ]
| As your site amasses content — be it stories, SKUs, or statistics — a
| tailored, effective, and exacting search engine becomes increasingly vital.
| Imagine a bookstore that doesn’t index its tomes by title or author, or a
| clothing retailer that doesn’t index garments by size. Without search, each
| site is useless. In general, the quality and relevance of search results
| makes or breaks a site.

Google: The internet is 'the right programming model'
,----[ Quote ]
| Just five years ago, Vic Gundotra argued that web apps could never rival
| their desktop brethren. But that's when he worked for Microsoft. He works for
| Google now. And he sees things quite differently.
|
| In 2004, Gundotra and his Microsoft team - responsible for driving developers
| to Windows - pointed to an application called Keyhole as a prime example of
| the sort of desktop goodness that could never be duplicated on the web. Then
| Google bought Keyhole, a Windows app that stitched satellite photos into a
| pan-and-zoom-able virtual landscape, and within months, it turned the app
| into a web service.

,----[ Quote ]
| HTML 5, the next version of hypertext markup language, includes many powerful
| ways for web application developers and people who manage sites and blogs to
| use graphics, video, location services and more. At the Google I/O event in
| San Francisco today, Google is talking up HTML 5 and has also announced a
| new, easy way to incorporate Google products and services in sites and blogs.
| The new product is called Google Web Elements. This looks to be a very easy
| way to incorporate news feeds, interactive maps, videos, and many more types
| of Google-centric content with any site. At Google I/O, there is also news of
| a new second iteration of the Android Developer Challenge with big cash
| prizes, and new Java language support in Google App Engine. Here are more
| details.
