没核心技术的中国“马桶”何以傲游浏览器市场
七月 28, 2007 11:49 上午Maxthon(马桶)在竞争激烈的浏览器市场上现在顺风顺水,成了香馍馍。但其却没有浏览器的核心技术,其内核是微软的IE,在没有微软IE强势,在没有有自己内核的开源浏览器火狐有骨气的情况下,在中国的市场上却占据老二的位子。原因在哪里?
进入七月,浏览器市场又添战火,国内著名公司傲游正式发布其Maxthon2.0(网友昵称其为马桶),更有甚者,关于Google百万美元入股傲游的消息也跟风潮涨,马桶大当家、创始人陈明杰虽出面澄清,但在关于百度与Google竞争日趋白热化的时节,掌握着百度不少流量的马桶,看来与Google合作的谣传并非空穴来风。
近半年来,浏览器市场可谓新闻不断,先有IE7出炉,后有火狐3.0跟风,再有Windows版苹果Safari挺进,而在这炎热的七月,马桶2.0又杀出,看样子浏览器市场在下半年一场恶战在所难免。马桶的官方中文名称是傲游浏览器,前身为MyIE,因其提供比IE更多的功能以及简单易用性,深受国内网民的欢迎,在欧美浏览器界也小有名气,据官方数据显示,Maxthon下载用户数已突破1亿,占据国内浏览器市场18%的份额,仅次于IE,位列中国市场第二位,比前一阶段风光无限的火狐在中国市场表现更加劲挺。
浏览器市场,最大的看点在核心之争,开源的浏览器和微软的版权的浏览器的争斗在IT界由来以久。而关于浏览器的核心之争,是微软的IE和火狐的开源真有点水火难容,大有“你死我活”,不争出名目不罢休之势。在这种激烈的情势之下,马桶非常低调,因而新闻很少,马桶走得正是一条合作之路,不争论,只解决用户的应用问题。
在IE和火狐的争争吵吵中,马桶很少挤进媒体的视线,但它的市场占有率却在稳步攀升中,凭什么马桶可以在强大的IE压力下做得这样成功呢? 第一条还是不急论,不参与内核的争论。
在其创始人陈明杰眼中,在内核争论中占据一方的火狐代表的是种精神:开源软件是一个很伟大的运动,大家一起来把这个软件做好,其实Firefox已经不仅仅是一种软件了,是一种精神,就算IE好用我也要用Firefox,因为我就不喜欢用IE。与火狐等浏览器的不同之处在于:火狐是做一个标准的浏览器,考虑的是如何把浏览器做成功,解决浏览器兼容等各种问题;而马桶用的是IE内核,解决的是浏览器的应用问题,是从用户角度出发,让技术为使用舒适服务。
第二点则是专注于内核之外的应用创新。马桶基于IE内核,并在其上有创新,也正是这一点,他们得到了微软的支持,正是靠在微软巨人的肩上,马桶渐渐壮大。从马桶的研发上可窥一斑,做为IE内核的浏览器,马桶在同操作系统的兼容性上可以同IE6与IE7媲美,而其开放的特点,和其庞大的社区,又使其具有与开源火狐一样的人脉,同使用者紧密相连,许多使用都也是其开发者。正是这种得天独厚的优势,造就了马桶别样的成功。做更新更实用面向用户最需要的应用,是马桶的成功方向之一。
马桶2的发布之所以能引起这么高的关注,与浏览器这一特殊软件关系密切,这是我们通向网络的第一站,这也是Google百度们关注马桶的原因,而在这第一站上,马桶2做得更加符合中国人使用习惯,在一些细节的处理上,对用户体现了无微不至的关怀。未来的浏览器是什么样子的?肯定不止一个,但马桶给了我们一个贴近用户应用不断追求完美的方向,虽然马桶的模式不可复制,但马桶告诉我们的是:软件可以有许多成功的模式。

将你的网站加入DMOZ所必须知道
2:28 上午在http://www.temi.co.uk/interview-with-a-dmoz-editor/看到这篇文章,发现有一些信息非常有帮助。我简单整理4个最重要的:
提交你的主站地址
如果你的网页是www.5lsd.com,那么,不要提交www.5lsd.com/hi/
站在第三方的立场来描述(description)你的网站。不过,千万不要重复堆积关键词,也不要在描述中引用你的标题(title)
最好保证你提交的网站是链接完整的,并且不要有死链出现。凡是发现有页面还在“建设中”的话,八成会被拒绝。
提交分类的时候,最好细致一点,不要提交一些很粗略的分类。这一方面,提交到地理位置分类比较有效。

Quick Start for WordPress
七月 26, 2007 12:58 上午For the best results using FeedBurner with your self-hosted WordPress site, we recommend the FeedBurner FeedSmith plugin (originally authored by the awesome Steve Smith). The plugin will detect all ways to access your feed (e.g. http://www.yoursite.com/feed/ or http://www.yoursite.com/wp-rss2.php, etc.), and redirect them to your FeedBurner feed so you can track every possible subscriber. It will forward for your main posts feed, and optionally your main comments feed as well.
Download the plugin and then follow the instructions below to begin forwarding all WordPress feed traffic to your FeedBurner feed.
Installation
Copy the plugin file, FeedBurner_FeedSmith_Plugin.php into your default WordPress plugin directory, wp-content/plugins/ .
Activate the plugin by logging into your WordPress administration area, clicking Plugins, then clicking Activate at the end of the “FeedBurner FeedSmith” row.
In the WordPress administration area, begin the configuration by clicking Options and then the FeedBurner FeedSmith sub-option.
Follow the links to create your FeedBurner feeds, or if they already exist, simply fill in their URLs in the boxes provided.
NOTE: If you currently use the old, 2005-vintage version of the Ordered List FeedBurner plugin that generates a FeedBurner-specific URL (an example: www.yoursite.com/feedburner_838196/), that URL is no longer available or necessary. You will have to reset your FeedBurner feed’s Original Feed address to now use your standard blog feed address. Additionally, you should examine any .htaccess files that control access to your WordPress installation’s content and remove any existing references that forward or redirect your feeds, as these references will no longer be necessary.
Verify your URLs in the text entry fields, and click Save.
Now, all of your WordPress feed traffic should be redirected to FeedBurner.
Deactivation
To deactivate automatic forwarding of your feed traffic to FeedBurner, deactivate the plugin via the Plugins section of your WordPress Administration control panel.
For WordPress, we recommend the following set of services:
Browser-Friendly Burner. It makes your feed easy to view and subscribe to when viewed in a web browser.
Podcasting with WordPress? Then you should use SmartCast™. It will ensure maximum compatibility for your WordPress podcast feed. (Be sure to check your feed settings if you plan to podcast with WordPress.)
Verifying WordPress feed settings for podcasting
Are you using WordPress for podcasting? If so, it’s important to know that newer versions of WordPress will automatically convert linked MP3 files to RSS enclosures, but using our SmartCast™ service will guarantee maximum compatibility and reliability for your podcast. Either way, you will need to make sure you’re publishing a “full text” feed so your links make it into the RSS feed. Here’s how to verify your original WordPress site feed’s format:
In a new browser window, sign in to your WordPress account.
Once logged in, click the Options tab in the upper right part of the screen.
Click the Reading sub-tab.
FeedBurner FeedSmith
You should see the “Reading Options” settings page for your site.
On the “Publicity and Feeds” settings page, locate the “Syndication Feeds” section and make sure the “Full text” option is selected.

Click Update Options.
You should see the message “Options saved.”
