*Did you know: you can use Google with a little more power?


Add “site:edu” or “site:gov” to limit your search to school or government domains. 
To target specific sites add “site:domainname.com” to your search
Convert Currency and units by googling “9.5 cm in inches” for example
Narrow by file type – if you need to find a specific type of file, add “filetype:doc” for word documents, for example
Use two periods between numbers for search ranges such as “Wii $200 .. $300”
Flights: type in your airline and flight number to get back delay/departure/arrival information
