Custom Search Engine
I have been working on my Google Custom Search Engine, you can see the actual results here. The GSE documentation is not very comprehensive, for example, I can’t find anything about AdditionalData tag, but it is used in one of the featured examples (same with timestamp attribute). It is not very hard to build your own CSE because almost all what we need we have in the control panel of each search engine, and also we can use advanced options to extend our engine. But I think the best way to build more interesting application is to use Custom Search Engine and Google Ajax Search API, however doing that, we have to
find a compromise between full control and quantity of results. I will try to take as much as I need from both CSE and Google Search API, but I don’t really know how this frankenstein will be look like. 
Green-links v1.0 (beta)
It is time for a new version of my Google Ajax Search API project, which I called the Green-Links!.
This is BETA version, becouse I didn’t test it very much, however it works fine since I implement it on this blog.
What’s new:
- New Code,
- Preloader,
- Icons in tabbar (Icons downloaded from Google),
- Back button instead of Close button,
- Video search,
- Query redirection to the Google main page,
- Multicolor background..
- Add to Google button - bookmarking results,
- New items in the results:
- Blog: Author, Date
- News: Location, Date, Publisher
- Video: Duration, Date, Publisher
Click on the GreenLinks in posts, to see how it works… Google
Also look at the standalone example.
enjoy…
Playing with Google Ajax Search API
Since last post I’ve been playing with Google Ajax Search API. There is a lot of potencial in a inconspicuous search result presented by the Google Search, especially when we can implement it in various way on the website.
Today, I present two solutions, which I use on my blog. First, is a simple search form, which works same like Google Serach box. The main diffrence from that published on a Google Ajax Search API examples, is that the results are displayed on speciffied page, not restricted to the same page with search form. Query is submitted to the search.php using POST method, and the rest is done by a Google Ajax code. The advantage of that solution is the page independent search box. (You can find this search box at the top of this website).
Second thing, which I created using Google Ajax Search Api is something what i called “green-links”. The Green-links are links to the Google Search results that refers to the specified keywords (or phrases). When you click on the green-link the page will scroll to Google Search Results Panel. You will not lose your thread, because when you click on a “close” button on the Google Search Results Panel, results will be closed and the page will be scrolled back to the green-link. Simple! You can test it in the last post.
