Amaya

amayaAmaya is a Web editor. Browsing features are seamlessly integrated with the editing and remote access features in a uniform environment. This follows the original vision of the Web as a space for collaboration and not just a one-way publishing medium.
Work on Amaya started at W3C in 1996 to showcase Web technologies in a fully-featured Web client. The main motivation for developing Amaya was to provide a framework that can integrate as many W3C technologies as possible.  Amaya started as an HTML + CSS style sheets editor. Since that time it was extended to support XML and an increasing number of XML applications such as the XHTML family, MathML, and SVG. It allows all those vocabularies to be edited simultaneously in compound documents. 
Amaya includes a collaborative annotation application based on Resource Description Framework (RDF), XLink, and XPointer. Visit the Annotea project home page.

However, you must follow some rules and know what goes on when you are sitting in front of your pc.
I am scared by the quantity of information about myself I end up sharing with others – and I don’t know who they are.
They track us down for business. Business is not devil, as Google teaches us, but spying on us every second might be.
If you care about your privacy, have a look at the software below:
  • TrackMeNot is a lightweight browser extension that helps protect web searchers from surveillance and data-profiling by search engines. It does so not by means of concealment or encryption (i.e. covering one’s tracks), but instead, paradoxically, by the opposite strategy: noise and obfuscation. With TrackMeNot, actual web searches, lost in a cloud of false leads, are essentially hidden in plain view. User-installed TrackMeNot works with the Firefox Browser and popular search engines (AOL, Yahoo!, Google, and MSN) and requires no 3rd-party servers or services.
  • SCookies – Share your Cookies!
    SCookies simply shares your cookies with other users that enabled it too. It sends your cookies to a centralized server and gets another user’s cookie in return. By doing so, your profile will then be built on many other user’ search queries, thus the profiles are not realiable.
    It is a Firefox extension.
  • Scroogle is a web service that disguises the Internet address of users who want to run Google searches anonymously. Scroogle also gives users the option of having all communication between their computer and the search page be SSL encrypted.
    Besides anonymous searches, the tool allows users to perform Google searches without receiving Google advertisements. There is support for 28 languages, and the tool is available as a browser plug-in. A secure connection to the Scroogle website is also possible.
  • Privoxy is a non-caching web proxy  with advanced filtering capabilities for enhancing privacy, modifying web page data, managing HTTP cookies, controlling access, and removing ads, banners, pop-ups and other obnoxious Internet junk. Privoxy has a flexible configuration and can be customized to suit individual needs and tastes. Privoxy has application for both stand-alone systems and multi-user networks.

Eventually I discovered David’s Batch Processor (DBP).

David’s Batch Processor is a simple batch processing plugin for Gimp – it allows the user to automatically perform operations (such as resize) on a collection of image files. Its main advantage is that the user does not have to learn a scripting language. Like the Gimp itself, DBP relies on a graphical interface. The user creates a list of images, and sets up the processing required for each image. The results of the current settings can be displayed. Once the required sequence of operations has been set up, DBP performs the same processing on each image in turn. The images can be colour corrected, resized, cropped, and sharpened, then renamed and saved to a different file in a specified image format. All the steps (except loading and saving the image!) are optional; so the simplest use of DBP is just to convert a number of image files from one format to another.

And for you:

But to get your web page indexed, you must let the search engines’ robots know where your web page is located. In other words, you need links, links and more links! And not just any links.

What you need is links from themed websites!

Themed links are links coming from a site that is related to what your site is all about. A related link is worth more weight than links coming from a non-related site.

Website promotion: Fast Blog FinderA way for getting backlinks is commenting on blogs and including the URL for your site.

Blog commenting is one of the easiest FREE ways to get themed links to your site. All you need to do is to leave a comment on related blogs and include some anchored text linking back to your site. The other advantage is that some of the pages that you comment on have high PageRank!

Maybe you wont’ believe but there are tens of thousands, if not millions of blogs out there that actually want your comments on them… But searching manually for blogs that have page rank and discuss the right topic can be time consuming. It can take hours! Not any more.

With the Blog Finder software you can find hundreds of themed blogs in minutes! The Free edition of Blog Finder allows you find up to 50 blogs for each keyword phrase… no too bad ;-)
