Kobo Touch eReader User Agent

joy — Thu, 06 Sep 2012 18:04:40 +0000

Long time reader Harald shared his new Kobo Touch eReader with cleverhack.

Interestingly enough, the browser shows as Safari 1.3 in logs, which is an absurdly old Safari version.

Kyocera User Agent

joy — Sun, 25 Sep 2011 20:41:09 +0000

I’ve had an iPhone since forever and I apparently forgot that the second cell phone I ever owned was a Kyocera but that was back in 2003 or so and I had to procure a certain phone because I was living in Vermont which had a limited cell infrastructure…I do remember the 2003 era Kyocera had this newfangled “text messaging” capability.

The one interesting factoid is that back when I was working in e-commerce, I used to sell Kyocera knives online. I haven’t thought of Kyocera phones until I saw this User Agent today.

Not exactly a “smartphone”…

Spoofed Googlebot User Agent

joy — Mon, 19 Sep 2011 16:57:15 +0000

Well, this visitor caught my eye earlier as the originating IP address is from the technology company Oracle but with a Googlebot user agent. Another clue that this is a spoofed user agent is that they came in off of a Google Search Engine referrer, as Googlebot doesn’t usually do that. Also, their browser had requested images off of my server (as browsers usually do) and Googlebot usually does not.

Why would someone spoof Googlebot? Aside from the amusing (and covert) aspects, some Web sites may serve different content to Googlebot — for example, cloaking or doorway pages which are a big Google Webmaster no no (i.e. a Flash or Video based Web site serving text for indexing or a specifically optimized entry page).

It’s always sweet when a friend visits you to show off his new user agent (apparently this is why I’ve garnered Internet fame). Microsoft Internet Explorer 10 preview (MSIE 10) on Windows 8 (Windows NT 6.2) it looks like.

BlackBerry User Agent

I had no idea the user agent was…Safari based. Unless this is a BB user with a Safari browser? Can you use multiple browsers on a BB?

Here’s an IP address you don’t see that often

joy — Tue, 24 May 2011 23:25:00 +0000

in your Web site logs…an IP address from the range of 2.102.206.* Wow.

That’s an IP4 address starting with a 2. As someone fascinated with the history of the Internet, I find this pretty cool.

It’s a RIPE address (European) and assigned to the UK.
