When I think of google, I think of the "all-knowing". Wel,l little did I know I haven't even been using google to its full potential. I have learned that there are language tools to help you translate things, you can search news by country, you can input an image to find out what it might be called, using the "~" will return related terms to what you are searching for. I also had no idea that you could search for things based on the suffix of a web address (ie: .gov, .edu, etc). Using the "~" will definitely help me search for information on my research topic since there are many different terms for "prisoners". In my everyday life, I'm excited to use the picture tool. I ocasionally come across things that I am not familiar with and would loveto know what they may be called. Although, a smartphone will need to come first for that.
So before google 101, I loved google and use it daily. Now, I can use it to its full potential and hopefully get even more information on everything.
Google: MY all-knowing!
About Me
- To Be Well-Diversified
- I'm 31 years old and have been married for 2 1/2 years. I was born in MN but call NJ home since I spent most of my life there. I like to think that I am a diversified individual but I'm thinking this blog may change some of my views.

ReplyDeleteNo smartphone needed to use the Google image search...you can do Google image searches using URLs for the pictures, as well as image files.
Just wait til we start looking for government documents and statistics using Google tricks.
