WEB SEARCHER Google has unveiled a couple of new search services.
The first, which allows developers to search for software code is tagged on to the familiar Google home page. The other, which it calls Search Mash seems to pretend not to have anything to do with Google at all.
Google reckons its Code Search page allows programmers to familiarise themselves with a programming language by finding code samples to get a better understanding of the functions.
The site has indexed several billions lines of code from archives hosted on the web, as well as software control repositories from services like SourceForge and Google Code which host open source projects.
The search giant has also published an API that allows third-party developers to integrate a code search box into their development tools.

The second offering, Search Mash is not a lot unlike the Google search except you put in a couple of words at a time. Coo!
That's
here. µ
