what’s there in “humans.txt”
It’s an initiative for knowing the people behind a website. It’s a TXT file that contains information about the different people who have contributed to building the website.
Where is it located?
In the site root. Just next to the robots.txt file.
Why should I?
The only aim of this initiative is to know who the authors of the sites we visit are.
A human.txt file can be similar to the following template:
- /* TEAM */
- Your title: Your name.
- Site: email, link to a contact form, etc.
- Twitter: your Twitter username.
- Location: City, Country.
[...]
- /* THANKS */
- Name: name or url
[...]
- /* SITE */
- Last update: YYYY/MM/DD
- Standards: HTML5, CSS3,..
- Components: Modernizr, jQuery, etc.
- Software: Software used for the development
Make it a habit developers
More often than not, the owners of the site don’t like the authors signing it; they claim that doing so may make the site less efficient. By adding a txt file, you can prove your authorship (not your property) in an external, fast, easy and accessible way.
Google Drive is on its Way
It has been in discussion for some time now, we hope it will bring some revolution to the way we use file storage.
Google Cloud Storage:
Google Cloud storage is a RESTful service for storing and accessing your data on Google’s infrastructure, which is similar to Amazon Simple Storage service ie., Amazon s3, a scalable storage for web developers. Both provide Web Interface to access the data stored on their respective databases.
This is not the first of all, we are familiar with many websites which provide file storage and sharing. Dropbox and Box.net are leading in the field which provides very good features to store and share. Both are unique in its own way.
But now its Google’s turn, http://drive.google.com .
What we can Expect in this Drive:
- Every know this at least now, A 5 GB Storage Space.
- Obviously it will have web interface to access the data stored on the drive and also you can expect a desktop client to access all the files in the Google cloud Drive, which will be an asset.
- Different sources claim that, Google Drive app will be released for Android, IOS and Mac.
- Possibility to get integrated in Gmail and docs.
- We should wait to see how it will get integrated in to Google+.
We have to wait till next week for the Official Release of the most awaited Google Drive.
