Scraper Code All Over Google Code Search

I was looking for some php examples for something I was doing and I keep coming upon this site which has TONS of scraper made for adsense code. I gotta think they made this for google code search but dont you think its kind of stupid?

Anyway…

    This looks pretty much like a trial – nobody but programmers is using google codesearch these days.

    Surely you can get your own “Unique” scraper code easy enough. Writing a bot isn’t that difficult. You probably have a dozen books on it already on your bookshelf (which you could give away at the next NPMMO… I’d take one. :) )

    What does it do exactly? And how does the Google codesearch works?

    I need to get up on coding all I know is the simple stuff…like

    scrapper code is useless because of the duplicate content penalties. You have to find a way to scramble the content and change words so it’s not EXACTLY the same. Obviously.

    and I was wondering if anyone else was wondering who was wondering about this.

    I actually followed the link to their site, you can not see the site. Ok, the 404 page, but nothing for the rest.

    Other then the slightly ironic fact that google found the zip, recognized it as php and threw it in Google code, the code is pretty boring and useless. If you’re going to be a spammer at least be clever instead of boring and banal.

    Ahh so thats what it is. It doesnt actually scrape content?

    lol that’s exactly what I was wondering.

    scraper code to me is useless for the most part the good code u won’t find it floating out there as easily. depending on what u are doing it may be just as easy to contract out writing junk content :)

    scraper code…

    Yeah very interesting. Google scrapes a site that teaches you how to do scraper pages then claims:

    “Google is neither affiliated with the authors of this page nor responsible for its content.”

    I’m gonna start using that quote on all my sites! ;D

    Search Google Code for “shoemoney” and that site comes up too.

  15. Jeremy Luebke

    Thanks Peter, thats gonna be of some use :P

    I click your link and see “Content not found.”

    But every 5th time it will load? WTF?

  17. Amanda

    Its all jibberish to meee

  18. Lee Bandoni

    I wonder how mant terrabytes of useless code must be online these days, I bet there is also some really sweet code from big companies just sitting around

    I grabbed the files and installed them. Unless I’m missing something, this seems like nothing more than a MFA template, like the ones you would buy off eBay for $10.

    You could check out scRUBYt! (http://scrubyt.org), the currently hottest Ruby Web scraping framework.

  21. Al Davies

    Bigger question is what were YOU trying to do ;-)

  22. fivecentnickel.com

    Um, yeah. Very much so.

  23. Travel Notebook

    What exactly is that?
