Google is God.

== Google Search Shortcuts==
Google URL in its most basic form: <tt>http://www.google.co.uk/search?&q=keyword</tt> 
Google uses [http://www.unicode.org/standard/WhatIsUnicode.html Unicode UTF-8] to encode the query string.
*&q=YOURQUERY 
*&as_qdr=d (filter by date, drop down menu will appear: d | m3 | m6 | y) 
*&as_occt=any (filter by where words appear on page: any | title | body | url | links) 
*&num=2 (filter number of results you see per page) 
*as_sitesearch=youtube.com (restrict results from specific site) 
See Also: [http://www.google.com/help/operators.html Advanced Google Operators]

=== Language ===
*define:keyword | definition of word
*~keyword | search for the word and its synonyms
*+ other standard [[boolean operator]]s

=== Calculator ===
*+ - ^ /
*multiply is not indicated by the asterisk because it stands for undefined space between keywords. so searching for "tasty * jam" will return "tasty tomato jam", "tasty strawberry jam", "tasty traffic jam", etc.

=== Conversion ===
oldunit in newunits. example of a query: "5 GBP in SGD"

*currency: GBP SGD RMB USD
*weight: kg pound
*liquid: ml litre pint quart
*cloth: yard m
*percentage: %

=== Specific search ===
*site:.sg “keyword” | specific/country domain
*filetype:mp3 "keyword" | fileformat
*related:url | related pages
*link:url | linked pages
*site:url | search only within the site
*info:url | information about pages
*cache:url | view cached page 

you can also do text searches for keywords only in the titles of pages (allintitle:), keywords only in the body text (intext:, allintext:), keywords in books (book), searches for websafe items (safesearch:). other things less likely to be used are phone numbers (phonebook:), business phone numbers (bphonebook:), residental phone numbers (rphonebook:), movie times (movie:), stock quotes (stock:) and the weather (weather:)
