10 Cool Google Search Tricks

Browsing through the web this week I came across another interesting post covering 10 cool Google search tricks. Here is what they included on the list:

• How to search different file formats (keyword filetype:doc)

• How to search educational resources (keyword site:.edu)

• Finding the meaning of words and abbreviations (define:keyword)

• Finding the time of any location (time new york)

• Finding the weather of any location (california weather)

• Tracking commentary of live events (cricket)

• Using Google as a calculator (9 * 10)

• Converting currencies (1 USD in EUR)

• Tracking stocks (stocks:MSFT)

• Finding faces (add imgtype=face to the URL)

Some of these tricks I was familiar with, others I was not. Most are pretty interesting anyway, and they illustrator the breadth of scope that Google is achieving lately.
