More on BananaSlug
Steve, the creator of BananaSlug, which provides a unique way to search Google using the Google API, e-mailed me yesterday to give a little background about the service.
I had wondered aloud in a blog entry the other day about the meaning of the name, and Steve was happy to oblige me:
Why is it called BananaSlug? I am a graduate of UC Santa Cruz, home to lots of real banana slugs, and it's also the school mascot. I had registered the domain long ago, but never used it for anything.
Ah, so that's it! Steve also updated me on some enhancements to the site:
The new version of BananaSlug redirects immediately to Google results after the 1000 limit has been reached. Not ideal, but you don't have that intermediate clickthrough to do.
Sounds good to me, Steve. Keep up the great work. That Google API program is a beautiful thing.
