Need exact names or something like that? Try “joe smuck” and you get all listings for joe smuck. Do joe smuck without quotes and get all listings for joe and all listings for smuck and very few with joe smuck together. You can do that with alot of things when searching

Nice list! You can also use something like “4 tablespoons = ? cups” w/o the ” to get conversions.

Shameless self-promotion here, but another way to avoid all the price comparison sites when looking for products is to use http://www.givemebackmygoogle.com for searching. Doesn’t always work, but cuts out a lot of the rubbish.

Thanks, I did not know any of these and it is helpful rather than typing the same thing twice for instance the UPS tracking.
Like it.

Fantastic article – I like the weather option although it is quite frightening how much data google does have. I think it is okay in this regards but when it comes to searching social networking sites and peoples personal details it is quite worrying. Especially since, considering google is moving into this field and their primarily business is “search”. Great article, have a lovely day! – Sue x
