Google released Code Search today. It is billed as the single location programmers can search for accessible code. Google Code Search can be searched using precise regular expressions, or restricted searches for particular languages or filenames can be performed. Google's code searcher crawls and indexes the web for .tar.gz, .tar.bz2, .tar, and .zip files. The idea for the code search came about from Google's internal code base search tool that was getting a lot of successful usage. The results from searches seem a little messy, and quite ugly, which might be a deterrent for some users, but could potentially be quite a useful tool for providing more insight into, and solving coding issues quicker.Filed under: Features, Google, Googleholic

When Google Code popped up last week, the comparisons to SourceForge were rampant, and deservedly so. Google Code does everything (well, most things) that SourceForge does, Google-style. But how does Google Code really compare to SourceForge for actual open source project management? The anonymous blogger at //engtech has a good overview of of Google Code and how it compares to the SF juggernaut. He says that Google Code is easy to use and that "at the very least it lowers the barriers for project management. That might means more FOSS projects, but also a lot more crap to sift through."Filed under: Design, Developer, Internet, Utilities, Productivity, Web services, Google, Open Source
Google dropped the word a little while ago about some Open Source Community thingy they were working on, and Greg Stein said that he was just putting the finishing touches on it. Well, it looks like it has been released.
The new service from Google is a hosting environment called Project Hosting, that allows developers to upload and store any open-source project code they have in their arsenal. It also allows those interested, to search and download open source codes in Python, C++, Java, Audio, XML, CSharp, Graphics, and many other formats.
Google Code allows users to create new projects under the new hosting environment, giving it a name, summary, description, assigning it a license, (if it is licensed), and labeling it with keywords. The online description together with the keywords, is how users will find the open source code on the Google Project Hosting website.
When a project is opened, It is displayed with the title, description, licenses, and labels. There are also links to Blogs, and Google Groups info on that particular open source code. A great job from Google to help open up and grow the open source community.

With Halloween fast approaching, it's a great time to get in some practice defending your territory against zombies. In Graveyard Shift, you take aim at zombies and other creepy-crawlies, blasting them into splatters of cartoony green guts. It's a casual first-person shooter, and it's very easy to get the hang of - use the mouse to aim, click to fire. Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet.
They key to getting good at Graveyard Shift is learning to use ...
