Is this the Google box? What is it?

Did I actually accomplish this? Is it an example or is it useful? I followed the instructions, but now I'm not certain what I've done!

The Google Thing

Jenny made it work. She said follow Dave's instructions. So, I'm off to try something I know nothing about!

But, I'm always finding something else (simple) that stumps me. Look at the way she was able to make the text and graphic mesh together in this post. My graphics always take up several entire lines of text and the next sentence is waaaaaay down there! What's the secret in this that I'm missing? Why isn't any of this stuff obvious to me?

Remember in the movie A Few Good Men...

how the little shrimpy Marine gets trapped on the witness stand. He begins to look around uncomfortably and says, "Hal, what does that mean, Hal? What does that mean?"

I'm looking around for Russ or Dane or somebody to tell me what the Google thing really means to those of us who can't spell HTML, yet!

I'm excited about Google API's because these folks are:

John Robb has a Google Box on his weblog.  [Scripting News]

Dave Winer is writing more about it.

I'm not clued in enough to really understand why I should be so excited, but I've trusted them this far - so...yeah this is great! What's this? Amy's into it as well!

Search feature - It's a BIG Need!

To set up shortcuts, I want to go back and find stuff I've already posted. I hope we can uncover one of these soon!

If anyone knows of a free or low-cost way to add search within a Radio weblog, let me know. Atomz was suggested but the freebie won't do to cover the intended content reach of this site, though it might work for a while. The paid version, at $15K...[Russ Lipton Documents Radio]

Russ, has Dave given us the answer? Great wish list, too!

Right after I learn HTML, templates, RSSDistiller, a search feature, etc... I'll learn:

Instant outlining. Here's the O'Reilly Network story: Jon Udell: Instant Outlining, Instant Gratification. [Jon's Radio]

Maybe this answers my News Aggregator questions?

Shortening RSS descriptions to lead sentences. I'm really enjoying my ability to scan a lot of sources in my Radio news aggregator. [Jon's Radio]
