I wonder what other options they have that I don't know about... 150453[/snapback] Not sure, but there are several easter eggs. For example, if you type in "the answer to life, the universe, and everything", you'll get 42. This is only funny if you have read "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy."

serverph 0 Report post Posted September 7, 2005 we its all nice and dandy but really do you need to get that technical with using a search? 183120[/snapback] well, i do. since i use google search i lot, i find it comforting to know that there is a better and faster way to search things i want to find, without too much time spent trawling over hundreds and thousands of pages. Â it's a take-it-or-leave-it proposition. it's not forced on anybody. and if someone is contented with the search results in its default state, without using the advanced features of the google search, then so be it. i'm just here sharing what i find to be useful. garbage to some, but a goldmine to many.

arboc7 0 Report post Posted September 8, 2005 Very nice! I knew about some of the math functions, but it's nice to have them all in one, easy-to-remember (or bookmark, whichever you prefer) place!Thanks again!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mendezgarcia 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2005 we its all nice and dandy but really do you need to get that technical with using a search?It's not technical, use may use or not. Google's strongest point is being simple yet very useful IMO...The advanced functions are easy to remember in spite of being advanced ... And they also have some smart functions, like when you search a film they will show info, and you can type a location and get showtimes... it's astounding Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lozbo 0 Report post Posted September 17, 2005 Wow now theres even a calculator! this is great so we dont have to worry about math anymore! hehe, its everything online, remember the truth is inside there ... I did knew about the search within a site, i think thats what a lot of sites do within their pages, they include a link that searches google, adding "site:http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/;.

cse-icons 0 Report post Posted October 5, 2005 That was a useful post.I knew about the official google cheatsheet and use some of them, but the ones in the additional third party link were cool...Thanks dude... btw many of these search operators like filetype, * etc can be used on google desktop search as well...so search intelligently now...Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
atomicnacho 0 Report post Posted October 5, 2005 Great post. I never knew about the calculator function in google. Much quicker than dealing with the windows calculator for quick calculations. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
