Google Rower

Jeffball55 (Jeff Stewart) and CP

 

Google Rower uses a brute force technique to obtain more results. Google normally restricts queries to a maximum of a thousand results. However, Google Rower will send more queries, remove any duplicates, and display the results.

For example, Google Rower can obtain more results by searching for Jeffball55 a, Jeffball55 b, Jeffball55 c, etc. Once it obtains all the results, it removes the duplicates and displays them.

 

Instructions:

 

To run Google Rower, open Firefox.

Go to Tools->Google Rower

Fill in the your query

 

Alternatively you can right-click and Choose Google Rower. If you right-clicked with text selected, the query will populate with the selected text.

 

Characters to use:

The characters to use text box is automatically populated with abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234567890. These characters will be added to your query to increase the number of results.

For example, You fill in the query text box with Jeffball55 and the characters to use text box with CP and hit the Start button. Google Rower will send queries of Jeffball55, Jeffball55 C, and Jeffball55 P.

 

Duplicates/Separation

Google Rower provides several different options for separating the links via query and removing the duplicate links. The different options affect speed and memory that the extension will use.

 

Print Titles:

By default Google Rower outputs the links of the results returned by Google. Selecting this option allows the titles of the pages as reported by Google to be outputted.

 

No Headings in Output:

By default Google Rower outputs some headings to show which links came from which query. Selecting this option turns off those Headings. This option is useful when the results will be piped into another program.

 

Notes:

Google Rower may get 403 errors from Google. These errors are normal when sending queries with multiple advanced operators.

 

Due to the large amount of queries Google Rower sends to Google, it may slow Firefox down a little.
