Absolutely everyone uses Google. Recently a friend sent me this tiny URl to a site / blog containing 20 quite relevant search strategies to get the most out of Google.
While many of these are well used eg Use quotation around words to do a very targeted and specific search, there were new ones for me.
I've listed some below that I know definitely will help me out.
Hyhpen for excluding words
Colon for specific sites
Pages that link
Use of an asterix as a wild card
Using Google to solve maths problems
Finding file types
Searching a range of numbers
Tracking packages, faster than the online site.............. So the blogger claims

How many of these do you use?
What ones would be appropriate to teach our students especially in this the 21 Century?
