Tricks To Using Google

January 31st, 2008

Did you know that Google has some extras to offer?

  • Get local time
    Type, e.g. time chicago, time singapore

  • Weather and temperature
    E.g. temp hong kong, temp new york

  • Find the meaning of a word
    Add define before the search term

  • Currency conversion
    E.g. 20 usd in euro

  • Unit Conversion
    E.g.
    Temperature - 50 f to c, 30 c to f
    Distance - 10 miles to km
    Volume - half cup to ml, 30 oz to ml

  • Tracking parcels
    Enter your tracking number for USPS, UPS or FedEx without having to login to the respective websites

  • Get flight details
    Enter the carrier’s name and flight number to find out the departure and estimated arrival time

  • Free Proxy
    Type cache:example.com to view a webpage blocked from your computer (replace example with the correct domain name)

  • Search specific photo images
    When searching for a photo of a person named Rose, add &imgtype=face to the end of your image search so that only images of faces will be shown (and not the flower)

  • Do calculations
    Type 14 * 28, 23.53+42.56+25.36, tan(50) / cos(60)
