Google Search Engine Extras
There's so many extra search options on Google that it's difficult to find space to list them all. Here are a few special features:
- Search for Books: If you're looking for text from a specific book, type in the name of the book (in quotes), or if you're looking for books about a particular subject, type in "books about xxx". Google will return results that contain content either in the book itself, and will offer links to Book Results at the top of the search page.
- Google Calculator: Use Google's calculator by just typing in whatever calculation you'd like Google to figure out. For example: half a quart in tablespoons.
- Google Definitions: Ask Google to define something by typing in define (insert term).
