Block people on your Firefox browser with customized plugin

Posted: 02 Nov 2010 04:45 AM PDT

I am sure if you have a lot of friends online, you would want some of them to disappear. BlockYourEx is here for all the victims whose real life drama is leaking onto their virtual world. It might have been developed by someone who had an ex from hell and decided to leave room for more relationships going kaput but this feature is quite useful to ignore some without taking the pains to block or unfriend them on each network.

In case you are using Firefox you might find Ex-Blocker useful.

How to go about it?

Visit Ex-Blocker with Firefox and choose the 5 esteemed people you wish to block.
Feed in their full name, Facebook URL, Twitter ID and even their Blog URL. You need to select one person at a time.
Download the blocker, which will work like an add-on.
After restarting your browser, voila – there you have it – every trace of this person has been wiped out.

I guess the technology that got us so close to each other is now being used to keep “some people” at bay. Do you know of any similar applications? Do drop in your comments.

Buying a domain name can become quite tedious at times. Most common reason for this is there are hardly any good domains left in the popular .COM space.

But if you have ever tried grabbing a country-code level top-domain, it’s not searching but registering which is most-tedious part. While tools like Xona domain hacks make it easy to find cool county-top level domain names, they don’t offer direct registration service.

After a lot of searching, I finally came across a service which offers a very nice search feature and registration for more than 80 international top-level domains at one place.

iWantMyName is a nice registration service which supports all country codes used in domain extensions. It searches comprehensively with 80+ top-level domain.

The sheer number of top-level domain names we can register with iWantMyNamemakes it worth looking up if you are looking to register a new domain.

Use instant search with Facebook, Twitter, Flickr in one place

Posted: 01 Nov 2010 04:50 AM PDT

Google instant has been a hit and we have had many spin-off versions of it with Instant YouTube and also playing instant videos and adding to a list.

Sometimes I like using search on Twitter with Google Instant. Now Google has spoilt me and I want Twitter search to be instant. I tried doing that on Google search by using the "site:" operator but once that is entered instant results do not show up.

With Instantise I could get instant results with Twitter, Facebook, Flickr and many more sites with content.

Features of Instantise

Just visit the Instantise web-page. It opens with Google search page with options at the top to navigate.
At the top you can choose from social networks like Twitter and Facebook. I could also carry out of an instant search of RSS Feeds, Flickr photos and even Wikipedia.
At the moment the search does not show up the suggest feature and only shows instantaneous results of the search query. The site developer claims to update the new feature sometime soon.

This is basically borrowing of ideas Google Instant and applying to different portals. This one stop shop for instant results is handy and personally I like using Wikipedia search with its instant results.

Do you like instant search more than normal search? Do drop in your comments.
