Using a search engine

I remember seeing a search engine tutorial on someone's site that was completely useless, so I decided to see if I could come up with something a little better.

    To search, I'm using a search engine called Google.

  • Click the link to Google above.
  • Click the grey button named 'Images' if you're looking for an image, if not type in what you want in the small text box.
  • How to search: Don't use words like 'and', 'the' or 'of' in your search or you'll end up sifting through millions of useless sites.
  • Be specific, but don't make your request too long/complicated.
  • Use Advanced Searches to narrow down your results.
  • If you find something that'll do, don't be satsfied with it (image wise). Find something you love, or that has the best information.
  • If you were looking for a wallpaper of Austin Powers for example, you'd click 'Images', 'Advanced Image Search', type in 'Austin Powers', select 'Wallpaper' size and click Google search.
  • Most search engines will bring back similar results, but you could also try AOL Search, Lycos, Altavista or Angelfire.
