Sura and Boyo
There are at least three details about the origin of the name of Surabaya. Description The first mention, the name originally was Churabaya Surabaya, the village where the cross on the banks of the Brantas River. It was stated in the inscription Trowulan I in 1358 AD. Surabaya names are also listed in the State Pujasastra Kertagama written MPU Prapanca. In it Surabaya (Surabhaya) listed in pujasastra about cruise travel in the year 1365 by Hayam Wuruk, the King of Majapahit.
However Surabaya itself is believed by experts already exist in the years before the inscriptions were made. A Dutch researcher, GH Von Faber in his En Werd Geboren Een stad (Has Born A City) making hypotheses, Surabaya was established King Kertanegara year 1275, as a new settlement for his soldiers who had managed to quell the rebellion Kemuruhan year 1270 AD
The next version, the name of Surabaya, closely linked with stories about life and death fight between Duke Jayengrono and Sawunggaling. Perhaps, after defeating the army of the Tartars (Mongols), Raden Wijaya which is the first king of Majapahit, founded in Ujung Galuh palace, now the port area of Tanjung Perak, and put Duke Jayengrono to lead the area. Long Jayengrono getting stronger and independent because they master the science of Crocodiles, which threatens the sovereignty of Majapahit.
To conquer Jayengrono, diutuslah Sawunggaling a master of science Sura. died of exhaustion.
In another version, said Surabaya emerged from the battle between fish Suro myth Adu made his supernatural powers on the edge of the River near Paneleh Kalimas.Kesaktian ramming it lasts seven days and seven nights and ended tragically, both of them (Sura) and Boyo (Baya or Crocodile), celebrating the struggle between land and sea. Depictions of the battle was contained in the monuments and Boyo suro existing road near the zoo in Surabaya Setail
The latest version, issued in 1975, when Mayor Subaya Soeparno set a date May 31, 1293 as the anniversary of Surabaya. This means that in 2005, Surabaya was 712 years old. Determination was based on an agreement which established a group of historians that the name of the Surabaya city government comes from the words sura ing bhaya which means courage to face danger.

Auto Generate Meta Description for Blogger Blogspot

Sebastian Noack has written a very good script to auto-generate meta description for Blogger Blogspot. It works wonder in his Blogger custom blog.

The script will generate the meta tags based on the feed of your blog and updates the html template at Blogger. It generates meta tags for the following pages.


The homepage/ mainpage

This hack is certainly a sort of revolutionary since none ever able to do it before. The script behaves precisely like auto-generated meta description of Platinum SEO Pack or All in One SEO Pack WordPress plugins.

Unfortunately, it’s written in python program which is a bit complicated for those Windows user who are not familiar with Linux operating system. Including me.

We hope those who are familiar with python program can make Sebastian’s script more easier to implement for ordinary user. Please comment or trackback this post if you have done so.

What we expectt is this: Blogger Blogspot user needs only to copy/paste the script into the Blogger template without any need to run a complicated python script.(fatihsyuhud.com)
