We use Google on a daily basis: it's simple interface and page-ranking make
it a great search engine. However, there is much more to Google than just
simple keyword searching. During this videoconference, Glen will discuss
some of the lesser-known ways to get better results from your searches,
including some of the features, tricks and hacks that make Google more than
just a search engine, but a valuable reference tool for librarians.

Glen will demonstrate how to...

* use special operators to enhance search results
* use Google's built-in dictionary, calculator, unit converter, phone book,
and more
* get stock, weather, flight, movie, and package tracking information
* translate web pages from other languages
* search Google from your phone, instant messenger, and more
