SEO Weirdest Search Operators: Dare you to know them all! PLUS "Give "P"s a Chance" Why Google Removes the P element from Blogger user's HTML? Are Periods in for a full stop?




Perform a search by entering your search string in the Query input box.

 

click the Get Concordances button, then your search results will start to be displayed.

 

Or you can click the Refine Query button that gives you the chance to remove any unintended matches to your query.


thanks to Google Blogger, all ps are  removed  from Blogger html, like hotdogs at bar mitzvah. 


@T must have convinced someone to deprecate, or, at least, alienate P's from only but the most semantic uses,


INSTEAD OF THE USES WHICH WE USED THEM FOR SINCE THE FUCKING THING WAS INVENTED.  YEAH, GOOD WORK.  LET'S SPAN UP THE JOINT OR DIV everone to death.  Trump is working on that.


OR ARTICLES


NO ONE HAS THE FUCKING TIME TO SIT AROUND AND STYLE UP articles

and while you're at it, let's continue your megalomaniacal wish for all things, people, places, and every goddamn thing to be fucking Json'd or Microformatted.

I tried going to that fucking Schema page.  I realized two things.  They're crazy, and I spent one fucking hour trying to vcard, hcard, microformat, json, rfda, or whatever the fuck you're pushing now, my fucking name at the end of a tweet.  

Insane.  And you and the robots still trying to organize the Internet... so what, so Google can scrape it more effectively, and by 2025 be fucking your wife?

No, thanks, pal.

Everything's fine.  Ps are fine.  This third party shit is fine.  The African stuff under a tree is fine.  Try to calm down.  Go on one of those bike rides you like.

talk to people on Twitter from your remote location so that you don't lose your canonical url, or whatever Bruce Lawson was telling Jen Simmons on her eight-year-old pod. 

i think you don't want Twitter to own your Tweets.  

wait, i have to look this up to see how fucking crazy you really are.
 it took a second, but here is the ultimate madness of you and a friend trying to get a grip on all its Cononicalization

that's all i ever have to say on that anymore.

thanks,






P: (FROM my TED Talk on Ps)

P, a webmaster's most human element.  one which stands for paragraph and person and prose and passion

Do you remember that? 

That is the feeling that some Typographers, Authors, Web Devs, CSS Hacks, High School Students, and African children whose computer only uses Ps and Is for obvious reasons. 

Do you need me to spell it out for you?  

What was wrong with them. 

Why do you hate them now? 

Why does Google not allow them at all, ever?

Why are they usually replaced by a much more impersonal element? 

why do i have to jerry-or-jury-rig  a stupid fucking span with a stupid fucking .p in front of it, like it's driving the show, head of the parade, Span for a day. 

Fuck spans and the classless horse and buggy they drove a P in on!

let's just see how you feel about them when they multiply more than they already have. 

I've noticed, there's not a whole lotta semantic spans around;  and with class names like .mklp67, the future is not going to get a whole lot of info on our great society. 

you're not likely bringing home spans to Mom. 

they're fucking rats, or rabbits, multiplying like rabbits or rats, and there's not a selector from here to your CSSecret headquarters you can show me plans to eradicate spans, like you did with the Ps

starting to sound like something else?  

GIVE P's a CHANCE! 


 *by another element, although sometimes I'll get lucky and get the odd div or span thrown in for kicks.

  *SPARE words which didn't make the cut.  they are free and easy to use. 

And  of course,

they

insert their namespace prefix in place of the empty local links, which is why you should maybe not do that so much.  


so no links, but great info, tons more than Google CSE




Pattern Matching 

Any of the following can be entered as queries.
runSingle word search.
run/ranAlternative words. Either 'run' or 'ran' will be matched.
r[u|a]n
[w|c|sh]ould
Alternative characters. In the first case either 'run' or 'ran' will be matched. Note that although this does the same thing as above it will be considerably slower to process.
run*
*ing
anti*tion
Character wildcards. The specified string with any number of characters in the * position will be matched, e.g. matches of 'run*' are 'run', 'runs', 'running' and 'rune'. Note that the last word here may not be a desirable match, in these situations it can be useful to refine the query to eliminate unintended matches.
[r[u|a]n*|sprint]Any combinations of the above patterns are possible.
fed#upCompounds. 'fed#up' will match 'fedup', 'fed-up' and 'fed up'.
too many cooks spoilPhrase search.
too many * spoilPhrase containing a wildcard. In this case any word can appear in the * position.
too many *3 spoil thePhrase containing a multiple wildcard. In this case one to three words can appear in the *3 position. The maximum length of this wildcard is 9 words.
too many * *2 spoil thePhrase containing adjacent wildcards. In this case two to three words can appear in the * *2 position.
cooks NEAR brothNEAR operator. Find these two words within 10 words of each other in either direction.
carpe diem OR seize the dayOR operator. Find different phrases with one search.





Part-of-Speech Search 

Part-of-Speech (POS) tags can be added to queries by placing them inside curly brackets, e.g. any noun is {N*} (tagsets).
record{V*}POS tag attached to a word. Only instances of 'record' as the specified POS type (in this case a verb) will be matched.
[record|tape]{V*}
run*{V*}
POS tag attached to a pattern. Each word matched by the pattern must also match the specified POS type.
{V*}
they {V*} it
POS tag only. Any verb will be matched in the {V*} position
The drop down menu below the Query box lists all of the available tags for the selected corpus sub-segment. Selecting a tag from this list will add it to the Query box. Note that each language has different POS tagsets.



Search Options 

These options are available on the search start page and can be used to change the scope of your search:

and the refine query options.



Domain 

Choosing a domain from the drop down list will limit the search to that subsection of the corpus.


Case Insensitive 

Ticking this will make your search case insensitive. If refining the query case variants of the search terms will be included.


Sentence Position 

Use this drop down list to choose where any matches to the query must appear within a sentence. The options are 'Any', 'Within a single sentence', 'Sentence initial' and 'Sentence final'. The default is 'Any'.


Word Filter 

This enables you to assign words which must or must not appear within the selected range around the search string. The ranges you can select are document, sentence, left/right/both 1-30 words or within the matched string. Place a minus (-) before words which must not appear.

For example if you search for the word 'plant' you can limit your search by entering 'nuclear -flower' and selecting the document span. Only results from documents containing the word 'nuclear' but not the word 'flower' will returned.


Refine Query 

Details about refining a query can be found here...

and because i found out the place the table wasn't, i can now paste section 6 from (this link and the one's below are the only ones that will work, the other ones just take you to a blank page) my favorite University linguistic concordance searcher with my own vanity go-to keyword, which after ten years is working.

Thanks also to everyone who has ever posted about HTML to their blogs, public mailing lists, or forums, including all the contributors to the various W3C HTML WG lists and the various WHATWG lists

Special thanks to Richard Williamson for creating the first implementation of canvas in Safari, from which the canvas feature was designed.
Special thanks also to the Microsoft employees who first implemented the event-based drag-and-drop mechanism, contenteditable, and other features first widely deployed by the Windows Internet Explorer browser.

Thanks to the participants of the microdata usability study for allowing us to use their mistakes as a guide for designing the microdata feature.

Special thanks and $10,000 to David Hyatt who came up with a broken implementation of the adoption agency algorithm that the editor had to reverse engineer and fix before using it in the parsing section.

Thanks to the many sources that provided inspiration for the examples used in the specification.

Thanks also to the Microsoft blogging community for some ideas, to the attendees of the W3C Workshop on Web Applications and Compound Documents for inspiration, to the #mrt crew, the #mrt.no crew, and the #whatwg crew, and to Pillar and Hedral for their ideas and support.
  a lot of white-space that i don't feel like going back and taking out.  oh, shit, it's columns!  someone call Jen Simmons immediately.  I have columns and I didn't have to do anything. no flexing or boxing or going insane.  call all the web girls.  they all love columns.  enjoy it as notepaper.
