I've learned about Google's (unofficial) suggest API and their search API, which both look really great, but the suggest API doesn't actually suggest navigational completions. On the other hand, in Google Chrome if you start to type for example "apple", it will suggest "www.apple.com/trailers". I know it searches your browsing history, ...

One of the community sites I work on currently has this issue when viewing search results from Google CS in IE6. For example these results. Attempting to click on any result doesn't provoke the browser into following the link. Strangely though, shift clicking or right clicking and opening in a new window both work. Has anybody seen a...
Hey, I am thinking of designing a website that's sort of a targeted Yelp.com. Lets say it's for gas station, for example. The idea would be that someone would put in the address they're at, and it would show all the gas stations in the area. In order to do this, I would perform a google search through their API, and pull out nearby ...

Hi all I am not sure how to approach this problem. I have a function that is passed an array of HTML img elements.

Assume I have the entire HTML of a Google search results page. Does anyone know of any existing code (Ruby?) to scrape/parse the first page of Google search results?

I'm trying to find the best method to gather URLs, I could create my own little crawler but it would take my servers decades to crawl all of the Internet and the bandwidth required would be huge. The other thought would be using Google's Search API or Yahoo's Search API, but that's not really a great solution as it requires a search to ...

Is there any API function to do this, or I must...
Hi, I am writing a Python program that feeds a search term to google using the google search API and downloads the first 10 results. I was able to do this in Python 2.6 as follows: query = urllib.parse.urlencode({'q' : 'searchterm','start' : k},doseq=false) url = 'http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/search/web?v=1.0&%s' \ ...
