Expertise ur Google Search - Try these 25 Tips



Google Tip #1:
The "I'm Feeling Lucky™" button takes you directly to the first web page Google returns for your query. You won't see other search results - just this "lucky" one.


Google Tip #2:
Google will finish the sentence for you: instead of asking [who invented the parachute?], enter the query [the parachute was invented by *].


Google Tip #3:
Hit us with a fact-based question or query [population of Japan] by typing it into the Google search box. You'll see the answer at the top of your search results, plus a link to our source so you can find out more.


Google Tip #4:
To see a definition for a word or phrase, simply type the word followed by a colon "define:", then a space, and then the word(s) you want to know in the Google search box [define: quagmire].


Google Tip #5:
To search for something that involves a range of numbers, use two periods (no spaces). Do you need to know what was invented in the late 19th century? Try 'inventions 1850..1899'.


Google Tip #6:
Convert one currency into another. Type the amount and currency you'd like to convert into the Google search box and hit "Enter" or click the Google Search button. For example, 5000 veb in usd.


Google Tip #7:
Solve math problems involving basic arithmetic, more complicated math, units of measure and conversions, and physical constants. Just type the calculation [e^(i pi)+1] you need to figure out in the search box and click on the Google Search button. Complete instructions


Google Tip #8:
Narrow your searches using the Site Search feature. It will limit results to a specific website [admissions site:www.mit.edu].


Google Tip #9:
Use Site Search to narrow searches to a top level domain – choose among (.org, .edu, .mil, .com, and .net). Here's one: [1099 site:gov]. You can use this feature for country domains like .it (Italy) or .sz (Swaziland) too.


Google Tip #10:
Expand local searches beyond business name or type by being more specific [brick oven pizza] or [inexpensive hotel] in the "What" box on Google Local.


Google Tip #11:
Enter the tracking number from the FedEx, UPS or USPS package you just ordered, or sent, in the Google search box to see its progress.


Google Tip #12:
Next time you see a mysterious phone number on your caller ID, enter the area code [909] in the Google search box to see where that call is coming from. (Your choice on whether to answer.)


Google Tip #13:
To find a complete listing for a U.S. business, type the company name into the Google search box, along with the city and state. Or type the business name and zip code, or even the phone number with area code. It works for residential listings too.


Google Tip #14:
Include a city or zip code in your search and Google displays relevant results from that area at the top of your search results [outback steakhouse 53704].


Google Tip #15:
What's playing? Find reviews and showtimes for movies near you by typing "movies" or the name of a current film, into the Google search box along with your location (city and state or zip code) [four brothers atlanta ga].


Google Tip #16:
To see delays and weather conditions at a U.S. airport, type its three letter code plus the word "airport." Like this one for San Francisco: [sfo airport].


Google Tip #17:
Check the status of a U.S. flight by typing the name of the airline followed by the flight number. To see the status for United Airlines flight 134, search for [United 134].


Google Tip #18:
To see weather conditions and a four-day forecast for a U.S. location, type "weather," and specify the area: [weather kansas city ks]. (Usually a city name will be enough, but you may also want to include a state or zipcode.).


Google Tip #19:
To find street maps, enter a U.S. street address, including zip code or city and state [165 University Ave Palo Alto CA], in the Google search box.


Google Tip #20:
Find out what's on (and more important, what's out there in TV-land) by searching on Google Video.


Google Tip #21:
Enter a product [hawaiian shirt] into the Google search box to get relevant info, such as price, and links at the top of your search results, which are linked to merchants who participate in Froogle.


Google Tip #22:
Don't miss an important email. You can create filters and auto-forward certain messages to another account or even to your cell phone.


Google Tip #23:
Use Picasa to send your photos and albums to some of the most popular online photo finishers. Choose the pictures you want (hold down the CTRL key to select more than one) and click the "Order" button at the bottom of the screen.


Google Tip #24:
Unless your digital photo is of a rabbit, get rid of red eye with Picasa. Double-click on your photo to open a large view. Click the "Redeye" button. Click, hold and drag your mouse around each eye, then release it and apply.


Google Tip #25:
Add searchable captions to your digital photos using Picasa. Just double-click on the image to open the large view. Then click on "Make a caption" beneath the photo and type your description or comment.
