experts exchange hack

15 Oct

Technical questions(for computers) searched on google usually point to experts-exchange.com (i would give a 50-50 chance for this site to appear in the top 10 links when searched via Google) is a site which has the experts who exchange solutions, which requires registration which is not necessarily cheap. experts-exchange-subscription

So, how would you view the solution ? Solution is as simple as seeing it from Google.
experts-exchange-googlesearch

You use the Google’s cache. Using Google’s cache illegal ? No, of course not, its been provided by Google for free. Experts-exchange is identifying Google bot when requested for a webpage content and responding with the actual data that is not shown to a normal user unless registered.experts-exchange-googlecache You might need to scroll down to the end of the huge categories section to find the actual solution in experts-exchange. Pretty cool ha !

If you want to view a cached page that is present with Google, simple use “cache:http://blog.sair.am/” in Google Search

Happy Hacking !

a dumb but a clever hack for .co.cc and Weebly

14 Oct

Maintaining four individual domains having similar content is a little pain.

So, I decided to scrape off the cc domain sairam.co.cc(which I bought for $3) after an year and so, planned to redirect it to a constructed website on Weebly.

But, there is a little problem with the way you redirect from one url to another at www.co.cc , You cannot redirect a .co.cc domain to another .co.cc domain which could be used by spammers. But the flaw in the concept was one could redirect links via other links. The one that is free, short, customizable, famous is a URL shortener. So I cooked up a tinyurl link for my site and got it running.

Also, checked using http://www.url.sc/ – A free anonymous proxy (since DNS usually takes few hours to get updated).

So, what’s new about sairamkunala.co.cc ?
I am making another homepage for me on a neat, good looking, customizable interaface (so customizable that you can also add javascript into it), add analytics, add links, adsense,flickr widgets etc. for free on Weebly. The Interface provided by Webbly is very intuitive and neat.

The positive points about the site

  • Intuitive Interface
  • Loads of templates
  • Customizable themes
  • Free Subdomain
  • Link to a domain through A DNS record
  • Pro membership
  • Cheap Hosting

Negative points:

  • Cannot add custom widgets
  • Cannot have more than one domain pointing to the same weebly site
