Key Differences Between Google Adword Tool And The Keyword Planner

If you’ve logged into your Google Adwords account lately and attempted to use the Adwords keyword research tool, then you’ve probably seen the recent alert message at the top of your account notifying you that the Keyword Tool will no longer be available within the next few months. Instead, it’s being replaced with what Google has deemed the “Keyword Planner”. The warning message seems a bit ominous, and reactions across the Internet are a bit mixed. Some folks have erroneously claimed that local traffic data has “disappeared”, while others say that the new interface makes the search process much more...

Access FTP Servers Using Your Native File Browser

FTP, short for File Transfer Protocol, is one of the most common protocols for transferring files. You’ll use HTTP while browsing the web, but FTP while communicating with a file server. Normally, you’d use an FTP client for this. Especially when you work over FTP a lot (e.g. web developers), it pays off to use a specialised client that supports favourites, synchronisation and improved batch transfers. We’ve listed some of these at our top Mac and Linux software pages. While there are a huge number of good FTP clients out there, sometimes you can get by without installing any third-party...

Find the Number of Files From a Google Drive Folder

Google Drive lacks many basic features. For example, it's not easy to tell how many files are in a folder. Here's a way to do that:



Method #1: convert and download



1. right-click a folder

2. click "Download"

3. you'll find the number of files after waiting a few seconds. Sometimes, Google doesn't show the number of files and you should try again

4. click "Cancel".

If Google doesn't show the number of files, there's another way:



Method #2: move to



1. open the folder

2. repeatedly scroll down until you reach the end the folder. You can use the End key

3. select all the files using Shift+A

4. click "More" and "Move to"

5. click "Cancel".



"Move to" doesn't count the files from subfolders.

There's another option for folders with less than 500 files:



Method #3: folder view



1. open the parent folder

2. ctrl+click the target folder in the main view

3. you'll see the number of files in the page that opens in a new tab. This only shows the number of files if the folder has 500 files or less. If the folder has more than 500 files, you'll still see "500 items". That's a limitation of the folder sharing feature, which only includes the first 500 files from a folder.

Method #4: the Drive app



Probably the best option is to install the Google Drive app and quickly find the number of files of each Google Drive folder. If you use Windows Explorer, right-click the folder and select "Properties".

Result Details - a Google Search Experiment

There's a new Google experiment that annotates search results with information about the sites. Most of the information is obtained from Wikipedia articles, but there are a few exceptions.



Here are some examples. Click "Wired (magazine)" next to the search result URL and you'll read an excerpt from the Wikipedia article about Wired. Google also shows if the site is a Webby Award winner.

If you click the similar link placed next to the Google Voice blog, you can read some old information about GrandCentral, which was acquired by Google in 2007. The information is not obtained from a Wikipedia article.

The panels that show result details are quite useful and help you find more information about a site before visiting it. Unfortunately, the site needs to have a Wikipedia article, but that will probably change if the experiment becomes a standard feature.



Google's algorithms that associate pages with entities and Wikipedia articles are not perfect. The result details for google.ca are really funny:

To try this experiment, install a cookie manager extension like "Edit This Cookie" for Chrome, go to google.com and change the value of the NID cookie to:



67=p2QqiMkeBvGpTUoMlME_QMwGVE9LaS3h9FlO1p0kyVOCg9NVW8uNwAKALJalAfhHJweQdt7KDWjpv6P_1vsE-EGlABKpxK8PRUbwwQm2QBm9rZ3rARFBz6lCKcp2KF_x

If you use "Edit This Cookie", don't forget to click "Submit changes". Delete the NID cookie to opt-out from the experiment.
