learning how to search effectively

I'm Elizabeth, and not so technologically savvy....
so this will be a log of what I'm learning in my "teaching with technology" class.

First of all,
Who knew there were so many ways to search for information?

I've been a long-time fan of google, but now I've learned that using other search engines can pull up similar but different results.

Tricks I've learned for searching on google include using parenthesis, using capital letters, searching with limitations "this, not that", and searching for things that are "better than" other things.

I also like the fact that google will convert denominations of money if you type it into the search bar....Handy for travelers!
