Google. Advanced search as a working tool
We all use the Internet for work, study,to find the right information. And consequently, we all actively use search engines, which are developed by different companies with different forms of ownership for various algorithms. However, there is also something in common that Yandex, Bing, and Google offer, an expanded search. We will try to analyze this issue. What is and what does Google's "advanced search" feature mean for an ordinary user?
So, suppose we need information,corresponding to our key request, let it be "weather in Tokyo". Typing in the search engine this phrase, we get a list of Russian-language resources, where we can check this very weather. At the same time, if we use Google's "advanced search" function, we can give the browser the task of finding, for example, all relevant queries in English (or Japanese, Chinese). In addition, there is a function that allows us to find information for a certain period of time. So, if we are interested in the weather in Tokyo for the last week, we can ask for the latest news. If our task is to describe the annual changes, we can search for all the relevant results for the month, quarter, year.
Advanced search Google is useful also in that case,if we are looking for pictures for a material or pictures on our topic. Here we can search not only for keywords. Advanced search in "Google Images" can filter images and photos with a certain size in pixels or megabytes, by type (picture, clipart, picture, portrait), by time of change or addition - for the last 24 hours, per day, per week.
In addition, all new services are constantly appearing - from already well-known and beloved gmail to virtual libraries, museums, educational projects. On the last it is necessary to stop separately.
In addition, that the advanced Google search worksfor the user's own documents, as well as for those to whom he is granted access, there is an opportunity on the Google-Academy website to find materials for study and scientific work. Here, the search engine sorts out the popularity data - by citing the publications, calculates the average frequency for each language, will help to automatically generate a quote for use in your scientific work (in the abstract or the thesis), complying with the rules for compiling the bibliography. If in the advanced search we are looking for news - the search engine will help us get to the source.
