Steffen Hi, the name's Steffen and I'm writing about the Web, programming and all those things coming to my mind. Enjoy your stay.

I'm currently working on fabidoo.com - 3D Printing for everyone!

Yahoo, del.icio.us, and Google

del.icio.us inside Google DesktopOn Slashdot, I just read something funny in the Yahoo/del.icio.us discussion: Someone wrote a Google Desktop plugin that went online right before the announcement. Sad guy - I guess Google will remove the thing in the next hours/days from their site… Well, here’s a screenshot - maybe some rarity in the future ;-)

    Hey Steffen, I’m the sad guy! :-) Well, not so sad, actually. I don’t think Google will ask to remove it — it just doesn’t work that way out there. If it’s a good product, they won’t mind letting it stay.

    An example: Google for “GOOG” (their stock symbol); it brings up a Yahoo! Finance page even above the real first search result.

    But yes, it is ironic! :-) The plugin was already submitted to Google and in testing before the Yahoo! announcement happened.
