Did you know that there’s a Google search cheat sheet?
Even though I spend several hours a week searching for things in Google (all of them business-related and highly intellectual), this was the first I’d heard about a cheat sheet. There are a few new (to me) tricks that should be helpful in future searches.
Special Operators
For example, you can use the ~ operator to find synonyms. If you search for "spreadsheet", a Wikipedia article on spreadsheets is at the top of the search results (after the sponsored links).
Add the ~ operator, and Excel is at the top of the list, with no sponsored links.
The Google Calculator
There’s a built-in Google calculator, and did you know that you can type % of as an operator? That’s handy, and news to me!
What’s New to You?
Did you know all of the items on the Google Cheat Sheet, or are some of them new to you?
