Savvy Google Searching -- and Beyond
In much of life, what you find depends not only on where you search but also on how you search. This is certainly true when using Google to search the Internet. Choosing your keywords and hitting the search button is the first step to finding the information you seek. If it's also your last step, you may be overlooking features that can greatly improve your search experience. Next time you do a search, check out the left-hand panel that appears with the search results. Finding information that's outdated? Try clicking on "Past year" or "Past month" or whatever time frame fits your search best. Not finding quite what you wanted? Try checking out "Related searches." When planning a vacation, try changing your location to the city you plan to visit before you start searching for restaurants, hotels, events, etc. I'm not going to give detailed instructions and screen shots. The left-panel features of Google search are pretty intuitive, so it will be quicker and easier for you to just try them out.
