[September 2005] Power Tips

* Maybe life would be easier if someone smarter than us would just fill
in the blanks. Google's "wildcard" search operator, using the asterisk,
enables just that. Try [vitamin * is good for *] or [the parachute was
invented by *]
http://www.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=3178

* Using the Google Toolbar, it's easy to spot the exact words you've
searched for on the page. Search terms show up as clickable Word Find
buttons in the Toolbar, so you can quickly see where they appear
(clicking on them repeatedly takes you to each instance).
