Tried to search for my favorite character when I was just shocked with the change.
Can someone provide more details?
Personal is a new option of Google Search that is not integrated
directly in the algorithm that determines which search results are
returned to users when they run searches on Google.
It is a new option under the more link instead which you can load.
Please note that personal is only an option there if you are signed in
to a Google account, and that the new feature won't work yet for
Google Apps customers.

I'd like to know if there is a way to detect whether the user has entered the website from an Organic Link from Google on certain key words?
What I am trying to do is provide additional information to appear to those who found my site via Google?
Thanks!
Use Google Analytics
Sign up for an account and just add a small snippet of Javascript to your site. It's really easy to set up and track links from google and even the exact search terms used!
I want to write a mobile app which takes a picture and searches google images for similar pictures and then displays the results.
However, with google image search I can only search for text strings, and with the search API it seems there's no possibility to search for similar pictures; this feature seems to be available only through the web interface.
Any idea how I can solve this problem?
thanks,
Christoph
There is a way you can do this now, but its not officially supported, and there are probably some restrictions on the number of queries you can perform. Update
http://images.google.com/searchbyimage?hl=en&biw=1060&bih=766&gbv=2&site=search&image_url={{URL To your image}}&sa=X&ei=H6RaTtb5JcTeiALlmPi2CQ&ved=0CDsQ9Q8
There is also a google image search API, which is being officially deprecated, but it will work for now.
http://code.google.com/apis/imagesearch/
The Google Vision API.
https://cloud.google.com/vision/
This is very simple and easy and powerful.
I had done something like that recently for a mobile app, this is the code for it, it uses google search by image feature, and returns the "best guess" or the whole page
you could use that and modify it to do what you want, but once you get the best guess of the image you could search for any image with that title, etc
https://github.com/hbattat/search-by-image
I don't think it's possible. If you click the link to find similar images from the images result page you get a link with the original query included:
google.com/images?q=ORIGINAL_QUERY&imgtype=i_similar&sa=...
If you remove that GET param manually, the search does not work, it only shows the images search form.
I dont think it is possible to find similar images with google if you do not know what's on it.
I was looking for an answer to this some time ago, and found tineye. You have to pay for it, though. Currently (Jan 2012) USD300 for 5K searches, USD1.5K for 30K searches...
SerpAPI enables to search through Google Images and returns a clean JSON.
URL example:
https://serpapi.com/search.json?q=Apple&tbm=isch&ijn=0
Documentation:
https://serpapi.com/images-results
This service is integrated with most of the programming languages: python, php, java, golang, nodejs...
Google limit the number of search per day. but this service provides unlimited searches...
Is there any way to add google search results into your site such that the results appear under your domain (and the page doesn't get redirected to google.com)? I know about google cse but this is not a free solution. Is paying for CSE the only way? Thanks.
Use the Google AJAX Search API (my emphasis):
The Google AJAX Search API lets you
put Google Search in your web pages
with JavaScript. You can embed a
simple, dynamic search box and display
search results in your own web pages
or use the results in innovative,
programmatic ways.
You just need JavaScript - nothing server-side.
You could use Google Search API.
You could also query Google search engine through a Web Service. Here's the WSDL and here's the FAQ. But I think this will be discontinued in favor of the first suggestion I gave.
I've never used this but if you're into python check out Python Library for Google Search from Peteris Krumins’ blog.
What about this? http://code.google.com/apis/ajaxsearch/web.html
And there should be even API for PHP etc.
Guy,
I am in need for a functionality which can take Zipcode as an input and find all the departmental stores in that area and grabs their contact information from the web. This is sort of like a webcrowler but I dont want to make it that complicated. Any ideas of how I can go on doing this ?
Is there any web service out there which can provide me this like yellow pages or something. Google API and Mappoint api wont be effective.
Thanks
Try the google maps api and local search.
Try using store locator in google maps API website..
