Narrowing Your Search With Google
Have you ever used the advanced search functions when trying to find something at google. Go ahead — head off to google right now so you can follow along. Once you are at googles home page you can see to the right of the search box is a hyperlink that says advanced search. Click on this and check it out. I often head off to the advanced search when I am looking for something specific and forget some of the advanced operators. For example, if I wish to find current information on a skier that won a gold medal at the olympics today then click on the plus sign near the bottom of the advanced search and you can choose to display only stuff current as of today. There are also various other fields that will help you narrow your search.
