Searching the Internet

Sometimes I wonder just how I made it through a day without being able to search for something on the Internet. How did I find answers? I guess I just lived in blissful ignorance!

I can’t imagine not being able to look up information like bug bites, diaper rashes, or even Chicago personal injury lawyers. Ok, that last one I admit I’ve never actually searched for but I’m sure I would find a lot of results if I did.

I used to be really good at searching the Internet. But I’m beginning to lose my touch as I’m not as efficient as I once was. It does really depend on what you search for. I have a lot better results searching for phrases than one or two words. Sometimes I have trouble finding the exact wording of a problem or the word I choose will be used in a different context so the results are not what I need.

I guess before the Internet maybe I didn’t have as many questions or maybe didn’t care about answers. I’m not sure which but I know now I can’t imagine being without the ability to search for answers.

  1. If your searching Google, I got a quick free tip for everyone. Lets say your searching for cheap web hosting on the Google. Lets say that you want to find websites that MUST contain the word “cheap” along with the phrase “web hosting”. Your search will now be put into Google like this…

    “cheap” “web hosting”

    Don’t forget the double quotes and it will be a highly relevant search for what your looking for. Good luck and have fun.
