[GRLUG] Google Question

[Chris Lamrock]

I must suck at searching because I usually make it 3 or 4 o's deep before I'm happy...

On a side note my new search tactic for obscure things is to do an image search - scan for something similar to what I'm looking for and go from there...  This worked great just the other day when I was researching balancing robots - I had seen a particular robot that balanced on a ball but for the life of me couldn't remember where... with an image search I could see a page robot pics before having to dive into a website...  The 1st page displayed a pic of the exact robot I was interested in...

  I only use the second page when looking for help with very specific error messages.  I guess at that point my search is about as narrow as its going to get.  Other than that, rarely do I hit any part of the oooooooogle.

    I'm just wondering if anyone actually uses the Goooooogle at the
    bottom of the google page?  I just realized that if the site I am
    looking for doesn't come up on the first page I refine the search
    terms.  Most of the time don't even scroll down, if it isn't visible 
    on the screen, I re-search.

    I just realized that I rarely go the the second page because I just
    did it today and it felt weird.
