Remove about.com From Google Results
March 14th, 2009 | Published in etc
The Google about.com remover is awesome, but it broke when Google changed its results style to include the SearchWiki stuff. This is a quick fix for that:
// ==UserScript==</p>
<pre><code>// @name Google about.com remover
// @namespace http://www.arantius.com/misc/greasemonkey/
// @description Removes results for any "about.com" page from google.
// @include http://www.google.com/search*
// ==/UserScript==
//
// fixed to cope with the new Google search wiki-style results
//
var results=document.evaluate('//a[contains(@href, "about.com/")]/..',
document, null, XPathResult.UNORDERED_NODE_SNAPSHOT_TYPE, null);
for (var result=null, i=0; result=results.snapshotItem(i); i++) {
result.parentNode.style.display='none';
}
This is one of the reasons I can't quit Firefox.
