Ok, so everyone uses Google for search. Google has become the king of search because it finds the stuff people are looking for.
But if you give Google a little bit of help it can do an even better job.
Try using these simple search tips.
Hawaiian ~vacation
Use the "~" symbol in front of a word to also search for synonyms.
Hawaiian vacations -cruise
Use the "-" symbol in front of a word that you don't want to find in your results.
best books 2002..2007
Will return lists of best books for each of the years from 2002 to 2007 (note the two periods between the two numbers).
site:irs.gov 1099 form
Use "site:website.com" in your search to search only certain websites.
"The Princess Bride"
Use quotes to search an exact phrase.
Amazing grace how * the sound
Use "*" symbol as a wildcard to search for phrases where you don't know one or more of the words.
Cool Link:
Free video and audio calls around the world. Skype is becoming a great free alternative to international calls. Plus, the audio quality is amazing! We have all become accustomed to the poor audio quality of landlines and cellphones. Two people chatting on Skype feels like you are in the same room even when you are across the ocean.
