Airbus A380 already for sale on eBay?
Of course not. But if you look at the Google ads for this post, you might think there are … 
RemoteInclude ASP.NET UserControl
Ever wanted to use something like the #include directive for remote pages (i.e. pages from a different server/website)? It’s actually pretty easy to do with this RemoteInclude ASP.NET UserControl.
FeedJumbler has a new “datestyle” parameter plus “HTML Fragment” output version
FeedJumbler now has an additional query string parameter for the HTML and JavaScript versions that determines how the dates of the individual posts are displayed - you can now group the entries for each day under a common date header (see lazytom’s site for an example) or not display any dates at all (see here in the right hand bar where it includes the items from this blog).
The second new feature today is that there is a new output version that I called “HTML fragment” (example here). This is basically the same as the already existing “HTML preview”, but it excludes the enclosing HTML and BODY tags, which makes it suitable for including in an exisiting HTML page (with something like this RemoteInclude ASP.NET UserControl).
And last but not least, I’ve now added CSS class attributes to the various block-level tags in the JavaScript and HTML output versions - so you can now apply your own styles (look at the source for details).

Airbus A380 has a successful first flight
In case you haven’t heard the news yet, the Airbus A380 (”World’s Biggest Airliner”) completed it’s maiden flight today. While nobody really expected anything special to happen (after all, in these days, pretty much everything has been computer-simulated already), it still amazes me that a a thing that weighs 560,000 kg is able to fly (it’s quite appropriate that the Airbus A380 website is titled “Seeing is believing”). Oh, and interesting little detail - the aircraft’s registration is “F-WWOW” …
PS. A few weeks ago, I saw the movie “The Aviator” - there, you can see how they try to make the “Spruce Goose” take off … I think the Airbus pilots had far fewer problems!
Ideas for additional FeedJumbler features
Here are some ideas for additional “special” feeds:
- Yahoo Search using API (see earlier post)
- Amazon book search results (using their Webservice interface)
Submit a comment if you have more ideas …
Yahoo Search
Hmm, looks like Yahoo actually has an API for Search as well …
Testing Flickr upload by Email …
This is a picture of Takakkaw Falls in Yoho National Park (British
Columbia). We were there in 2000, on a trip through the Canadian Rockies.
This picture was taken with an APS camera and this digital version of it
is from a trial batch I recently sent to DigitalPickle, to get the
negatives all scanned.
FeedJumbler can now generate feeds for Yahoo and MSN search results
Just specify “msn:foo” (for MSN) or “yahoo:foo” (for Yahoo) as the URL, where “foo” is the term you want to search for.
Search Results as RSS
Just noticed that not only the new MSN search, but also Yahoo search support RSS feeds of search results. But apparently Google does not … hmm, I might have to create my own using the Google API. Should be pretty easy …
EDIT: Ok, it WAS pretty easy - so here it is: Google Search for "Marcel Marchon" as RSS
