Opera Develops Search Engine For Web Developers 31
nk497 writes "The Metadata Analysis and Mining Application (MAMA) doesn't index content like a standard search engine, but looks at markup, style, scripting and the technology behind pages. Based on those existing MAMA-ed pages, 80.4 per cent of sites use cascading style sheets (CSS), while the average web page has 47 markup errors and 16,400 characters. Should you want to know which country is using the AJAX component XMLHttpRequest the most, MAMA can tell you that it's Norway, with 10.2 per cent of the data set."
Additional coverage is available at Computerworld, and a deeper explanation is up at Opera's Dev site.

Will MAMA tell you why you still live in her basement? This would be astonishingly useful for the entire slashdot population.
MAMAing (as in googling) these things is priceless.

What about the duplicates of the duplicates of the duplicates? We need to figure out how many levels of recursion they can achieve.
Ah, it's simple: it's turtles all the way down.
