3 tricks to make it easier to find information on Google.
There are dozens of combinations and tricks to google more effectively. But these 3 are some of the most important. And they're easy to remember:
To exclude a word from search results, put a "-" in front of it. For example, "-black cats." So Google will exclude all black felines from the results.
If you can't find a specific word for a query, just add an "*" sign instead. For example, for the query "best * on programming" Google will give you links to books, courses, movies and articles on programming.
To find a file type (jpg, pdf, txt), type "filetype:" in the search box and after a colon, type the file type and keywords. This is usually how you search for books. For example, the query "filetype:pdf The Old Man and the Sea" will instantly find the iconic novel in .pdf format.1 1
