Sort Search Results by Google PageRank or Alexa Rank

Are you aware of any search engine that lets you sort search results ? Some blog search engines do allow sorting by date or by relevance but nothing beyond.

Enter AfterVote.com that's not just another meta search engine combining the top results of Google, Yahoo or MSN - AfterVote will let you interact with the search results like never before.

AfterVote displays the Alexa Rank, Google PR and StumbleUpon reviews next to each search result. The URLs in the search results can be directly saved on social bookmarking sites like Digg, del.icio.us, etc.

And the most impressive feature - you can sort results based on the Alexa rankings or Google PageRank. The more you use this feature, the more addictive it gets.

There's an option to block results from certain web domains (blacklist). And if you are worried about search companies collecting your search queries, Aftervote may be a good solution since it lets you search the web anonymously - even your IP addresses are not stored anywhere.

AfterVote.com reminds me of another Ajax based meta search engine called Zippy Search that displays lot of additional SEO related data next to search engine results.

Update: AfterNote is no longer active. Check out Wolfram Alpha tricks.

How to Download Contacts from Facebook To Outlook Address Book

Facebook users are not too pleased with the "walled garden" approach of Facebook. The reason is simple - while you can easily import your Outlook address book and GMail contacts into Facebook, the reverse path is closed. There's no "official" way to export your Facebook friends email addresses or contact phone numbers out as a CSV file so that you can sync the contacts data with Outlook, GMail or your BlackBerry.

PhishTank Detects Phishing Websites by Digg Style Voting

OpenDNS, a free service that helps anyone surf the Internet faster with a simple DNS tweak , will announce PhishTank today. PhishTank is a free public database of phishing URLs where anyone can submit their phishes via email or through the website. The submissions are verified by the other community members who then vote for the suspected site. This is such a neat idea as sites can be categorized just based on user feedback without even having to manually verify each and every submission. PhishTank employs the "feedback loop" mechanism where users will be kept updated with the status' of the phish they submit either via email alerts or a personal RSS feed . Naturally, once the PhishTank databases grows, other sites can harness the data using open APIs which will remain free. OpenDNS would also use this data to improve their existing phishing detection algorithms which are already very impressive and efficient. PhishTank | PhishTank Blog [Thanks Allison] Related: Google
