If you don’t know how or can’t remember how to use operators, much less the definitions, calculator, or the unit converter in Google — and you don’t know from Google Scholar — check out this infographic from Hack College. It’ll really help you refine your searching technique. Check it out.

Very informative. Anyone can become a better researcher with the help of this article.
One of my favorites is the “define” command. Heck I also use the “translate” command. Try it out.
In the search box, put in:
translate:bebe

love the infographic, i especially liked the bit about not using wiki for your school projects resource. my son who is only in 5th had used wiki for his recent science project and i was just explaining to him to follow the links at the bottom for the real sources. better to start them early ;-)
thanks for the info AP
Oh wiki does have it’s uses, but geeks know all about the editing behind it. :) I find wiki to be good if I want some fantasy stuff like Xmen history. Not history on North Carolina. (lol)
thx for reading, jeepndave!

This was both interesting and helpful. I think that this will make my google searches far more efficient and in my job that is a plus. I particularly like the convertor feature. Keep up the great work!
Google can be our friend at work. :) thx for reading, Eric!
