Have you ever been googleing something, and you see exactly what you need in the preview, but when you click the link it doesnt show you what you want to see? This is because the owners of the site are trying to trick you into buying something, or registering. It's a common tactic on the internet. When Google visits the site, it gives something called a "Header". This header tells the site who the visitor is. Google's header is "Googlebot". The programmers of the site check to see if the header says "Googlebot", and if it does, it opens up all of its content for only googles eyes. Now, all we have to do is trick the site's headers, into thinking that we ARE google. That's what this site does.

]]> Mashup (web application hybrid) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mashup_(web_application_hybrid) A mashup is a website or application that combines content from more than one source into an integrated experience. It is sometimes created as a critique or commentary on an existing work or product. The tactic owes much to previous recombinant forms including: content repurposing, most notably by Kenneth Anger in his 1963 film Scorpio Rising; DJ mixing and culture jamming. Content used in mashups is typically sourced from a third party via a public interface or API, although some in the community believe that only cases where public interfaces are not used count as mashups. Other methods of sourcing content for mashups include Web feeds (e.g. RSS or Atom) and JavaScript. Many people are experimenting with mashups using Google, eBay, Amazon, AOL, Windows Live, and Yahoos APIs. 2007-01-23T13:50:40Z pvergain web2.0, mashup, enwikipedia
