DevShed continues their series looking at connecting a PHP5 script to the powerful Yahoo! search backend with part four of the series today. This part focuses on reworking some of the previous examples to make them more modular using custom defined functions.   Logically, these examples can be really useful for learning the basic concepts surrounding the use of these search services, but undoubtedly, it's necessary to modify and improve their source code to make it more compact and completely reusable.   They start the overhaul with the web search (complete with example results) then push on to the video and image searches and work them over the same way.

(InfoWorld) - Google will become more aggressive with its universal search effort, making a bolder push to blend a variety of Web links into a single results list. Speaking at Citigroup's Annual Global Technology Conference on Thursday, Sundar Pichai, director of product management at Google, said users of the company's search engine will see an increase in the frequency of search results that include various types of links, like Web pages, video clips, images, news articles, and maps. "We're still at the nascent stages. Going forward, we'll be more aggressive in terms of when we trigger this," Pichai said during a question-and-answer session with a Citigroup analyst and audience members. The universal search effort, launched formally in May but in the works for years at Google, aims to provide a more cohesive search experience for users so that they don't necessarily have to go to the company's image search engine to obtain photo results, for example. In addition to boosting universal search, Google needs to do better in helping users formulate and refine queries as well as improving its personalized search service, which takes into account users' past queries to tailor search results accordingly. The personalized search offering, which is an opt-in service that requires users to have a free Google account, will incorporate more data to improve the way it tailors search results, Pichai said. Meanwhile, Nicholas Fox, group business product manager of ads quality at Google, said the company is considering breaking its long tradition of running only text ads in its search result pages. Moving slowly and cautiously, Google officials are discussing scenarios in which image or video ads may prove more useful than the traditional pay-per-click text ad, Fox said, also speaking during the Citigroup conference. The ultimate consideration in doing this would be if it improves the user experience, Fox said. "We don't want to show things that are garish or flashy or cause users to become blind to the ads," he said.

Sebastian Bergmann has posted an official call for help for a PHPUnit-related project that seems to be a more and more requested feature for the popular unit testing package - an Ajax-based test runner.   It would be great if the frontend for the browser-based test runner would make use of AJAX. Since I am clueless when it comes to both web design in general and AJAX in particular, I would appreciate if someone else could help me with implementing this test runner.   He's looking for the XHTML, CSS, and Javascript to put it all together as well as the Javascript that makes the magic happen. If you're interested in helping out, you can either contact him on the mailing list or in #phpunit on the Freenode IRC network.

How do I stop the various Internet search services from recording every keyword I use? It can be embarrassing when somebody sits down at my desk and starts to type in a Google search, and when the first letter is typed, all  of my searches starting with that letter appear.

DevShed has posted the third part of their series looking at accessing the Yahoo! web services via PHP5 scripts. This time it's a focus on using the image search capabilities.   In this third chapter of the series, I'm going to continue exploring in detail other helpful web services offered by Yahoo!, such as those focusing on searching images and videos. Also, I will demonstrate how they can be queried directly from a basic PHP 5 application and process the corresponding search results by utilizing the same group of array handling functions that you saw in the previous article of the series.   Just like in previous articles of the series, they make a simple class that connect to the Yahoo! web services and request search details back about their queries (like "Madonna").

I have tested Google search on WAP and it works fine. But considering Google has around 4.2 Billion pages (as per their homepage), finding information on a mobile phone is not fun.
