Siapa yang tak kenal dengan Pakcik Google kan. (Tapi lelaki kat atas tu bukan Pakcik Google pun, itu pekerja kat company Pakcik Google). Melainkan korang guna search engine yang lain.

Kalau korang rasa Pakcik Google tu sekadar suatu tempat untuk korang search Websites berdasarkan pada satu perkataan yang spesifik sahaja, korang akan terperanjat apabila dapat tau rupanya Pakcik Google boleh buat perkara lain yang lebih menarik.

Meh godek-godek Pakcik Google ni....


If you think Google is simply about searching for Websites based on specific words, you’ll be amazed at what this top search engine is capable of. Here are some nifty tips and tricks:

#Go to "Preferences" at the menu bar and change the default display to 20, 30, 50 or 100 results instead of the usual 10 so you don't need to keep clicking "Next"- just scroll down

#Whatever the topic, search and you'll find tons of related passages (highlighted in yellow!) from books. If you’re composing an email or making a presentation, you can quote from these passages - and appear smart!

#If you don't already know this fundamental technique, it's about time you did! "AND" (all caps) between search terms to return results that only contain both words; "OR" for results that contain one word or the other; while putting a search in quotes (e.g. "Gadgets, Tech, Digital Stuff") will only present ... .­results that include that exact phrase.

#Use the Google Calculator. Type in math equations or conversions in the Google search box for instant results. E.g. search Google for "50 degrees Celsius in Fahrenheit" to get the answer: 122 degrees Fahrenheit.

#Start a search for definition of words with "define: (insert word here)" and get instant results! No need to get into dictionary.com!
