Google: Search All Uploaded Blog Photos on Blogger.com

Blogger keeps all the blog photos. You can easily search for them using Google's image search. Does Google keep blogger.com photos forever?

Tons of people use blogger.com to create their blogs. People upload photos to blogger.com to post as photos on their blog. Well, these blogs can be viewed by anybody in the public with a couple of crafty Google searches.

Google Image Search 1: site:photos1.blogger.com
Google Image Search 2: site:photos2.blogger.com

Makes for some interesting searches! "Owned" pictures on blogger.com anybody?

Google Image Search: site:photos1.blogger.com owned

And yes.... there are much more interesting terms for which to search than that. Although fun, this is mainly a warning that whatever you upload to blogger likely stays in the bowels of Google image search forever.

Bill Gates' First Reaction to the iPod in 2001; Great iPod Article

"Have you seen this yet?" I asked. Gates went into a zone that recalls those science fiction films where a space alien, confronted with a novel object, creates some sort of force tunnel between him and the object...Gates' fingers, racing at Nascar speed, played over the scroll wheel and pushed every button combination; "It's only for Macintosh?"

"And well you should not. For my ally in the Force. And a powerful ally it is. Life creates it, makes it grow. It's energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we...(Yoda pinches Luke's shoulder)...not this crude matter. (a sweeping gesture) You must feel the Force around you. (gesturing) Here, between you...me...the tree...the rock...everywhere! Yes, even between this land and that ship!"

Its energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter. You must feel the Force around you; here, between you, me, the tree, the rock, everywhere, yes. Even between the land and the ship. "

" Ready are you? What know you of ready? For eight hundred years have I trained Jedi. My own counsel will I keep on who is to be trained. A Jedi must have the deepest commitment, the most serious mind. This one a long time have I watched. All his life has he looked away... to the future, to the horizon. Never his mind on where he was. Hmm? What he was doing. Hmph. Adventure. Heh. Excitement. Heh. A Jedi craves not these things. You are reckless. "
