Is there a website for....yes - Off-topic

Hello,
Is there a website in which you can suggest words like: "4.5 inch" or "android 4.0" or "8MP camera" and then the site searches and finds smartphones that match the suggested words?
Example:
If I suggest: "8MP camera" , "Price range: €200-€300" , "android 4.0".
And now the website looks for a matching device. It lists the devices that match my suggested words and BAM I see it.
This is a serious question, so please don't say google.com or something.
Greetings

Yeah. I certainly wouldn't suggest that you put the words "4.5 inch €200-€300" into Google
Not sure you'd get the sort of results you'd want your girlfriend to know you were looking at

Kudos to you, sir.

As this is about websites and nothing technical about mobile devices, moved to Off-topic.

you have to search the phone model name
searching" 4.5inch" won't get you anything

Here's a search with just display size at least 4.5"

You don't need a model name. Just search for your minimum specs.
(I didn't specify it had to be a phone, so that has tablets as well.)

Geekaphone also has a phone finder, you select a price range and some specs and you should have some good suggestions

Google+ Question

Somebody I don't know said a bunch of crap about me publically on Google+, and tagged me in the posts. I know I can't untag myself from them, but unless they actually visit this guy's page, will followers of me on Google+ see these tagged posts?
It depends on who he posted them to. You can select to make anything you post totally public. Post a link and I'll see if I can see it for you.
Other than that, Google must surely give you a way of untagging yourself for this very reason. Get in touch with them and ask the question.
The post was totally public, and he has no connection to me through anyone following me.

I'm just curious if anybody following me can see it on their stream or anything.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
Well, I have another Gmail account and I made a Google+ account there, followed myself with the original account, and the other account. I don't see that post on the new account following the one with the tagged posts. So I should be good, right?
It sounds like it. TBH, I doubt many people can say for sure as Google+ is so different to the Facebook that we're used to.
I think you've done the best thing you can to test it.

K good. So nobody else can see it unless they go to the guy's page. Which wouldn't happen because he lives 4000 miles away and has no connection to me. But there HAS to be a way to untag myself, but I've been looking for hours on this and all I'm seeing is untagging pics.

Like I said earlier, the only thing I can think of is to ask Google. You can't be the 1st person that's needed to do this.
They don't really have a support email I can contact for this type of thing. I sent feedback and posted something on their forums. I'm just worried about somebody seeing this crap. I muted the post, that's about as far as I can go.
But, you said you didn't see anything...

"What Kinda Super Tracking Cookies Does XDA Use ?

Every time I visit another website, and then come back to XDA (yes I do close out that window before coming back to XDA), I see an advertisement for that website on XDA ? (or should I say, products advertised on that website)
Well, not every time, but .................
Happens to me too... I see mostly photo lens ads xD

I am pretty sure that will happen on any side you visit...thats how add revenue is so popular
Is there a setting you can adjust under Internet options to minimize this ?
Also, according to "Hotmail," if you close out the previous web-page, that's supposed to prevent this.
There is a way indeed... It's called ad-block and cookies clear on browser exit

OK, I just made a post in the off topic photo thread about the Panasonic Lumix ZR3, and now I'm seeing ads for the ZR3 on XDA!!!!
I've read an entire book on XP pro from cover to cover, owned 6 laptops, understand the in's and out's of converting and burning video's/CD's.
But would somebody please explain to me what's going on here ? And/or refer me to some appropriate tutorials.

Yup, XDA hasn't invented some awesome method, it's just the standard ad technology from the provider (doubleclick or dart iirc)
There's an opt-out on the ad network's site, to disable the tracking.
Is it a perk of being a recognised dev that I never see ads? I recently saw the site when I wasn't logged in and was like whaaaaaa?

It is. I thought that you would have had to actually go in and enable it yourself but maybe they do it for you automatically. To answer your question though, Yes.

I need to know which adverts it is you're seeing that are using this...
If you hover over them, try and get the domain name of it. If it's a google/doubleclick one, head to http://www.google.co.uk/privacy/ads/ for information about this. That's the google UK link, but there will be a suitable one for your region too (and I think it's a generic thing anyway)
Arent they called ad sense or something like that?

Budget laptop for school and work

Need your help:
I am now looking for a laptop for school and work that I can take around and with me on trips.
It doesn't have to be anything special, but I do want something that works well and looks nice.
I have looked around but everything is so over priced that I thought about asking you guys for your opinions.
Doesnt have to be exact but around these lines
Budget: $300-$400
Preferably Intel
250-500GB Hard drive
4GB Memory
15.6 Screen
Number pad
Windows 7 or 8 is fine
Let me know if you guys need any other information.
I'm still looking around but the more help I can get with this, the better. I need it quick before I start Summer A.
I just don't want to get ripped off.
I really appreciate it!

I am closing this thread. I am going to be yet another person to point you HERE. Please take the time to check it out. A lot of people have gotten exactly the help you are asking for in that thread.
There are a ton of reasons why you shouldn't open a thread just to get help finding a new computer. Forget that it is against the rules, or that it will clutter up xda, or that your thread is getting spammed. The most important reason is that the people who are willing to help you find a new computer are not searching all over xda looking for people to help, they look (wait for it).....HERE.

Thanks for the insight. We're working on a freemium model for a Feb release. We'll likely support ads, but they'll be contextual or relative to the workout. Example, if you're performing a strength workout, we'll provide insight on when to take protein and may have a sponsor. We may also offer sponsored workouts, but we'll stay away from "over branding". Thoughts?
