How to find EVERYTHING on the Internet?
“ How do you find that on the web ? ”
This one is for my Mom.
For all questions, Jess with an iPhone has the answers. The truth is, the World Wide Web has the answers and Jess just so happen to Google them.
So, how do we get Google to fetch the information for us ? It’s actually easy. Much easier than getting your dogs to fetch the newspaper for you. Because all we need to do is say “open sesame” in the right way.
The key point to find the right information on the internet is ASKing in the right way. Pretty much like in the real life, right attitudes get the answer right.
On the Google main page, or at that long white bar on top of a browser, type in the questions. The trick is, first, just type in the questions. And second, don’t take the eyes away from that white long bar while typing; of course, you are allowed to look down the keyboard if you are one-finger typers.
First, questions.
Type the questions for searching, and don’t worry about spelling, capitalization and make the sentence as direct as possible. For things we don’t even know HOW to ask, just type the keywords and separate them by space, and don’t worry about the order of words.
While typing, remember the very important second tip: LOOK. Based on the words we type, Google will keep showing searches that have been asked before. Point is, we would never be the first lucky one to ask THIS, so look out for the suggestions that Google shows while typing and the chances are you will find just what you are looking for. Click the suggestion, and that will save us a lot of time.
Examples:
If you wonder what is Spongebob, type in “ what is spongebob?”
If you are looking for recipes for salsa, type “ salsa” and look at the suggestions. Here is salsa recipes, click it and we just save ourselves trouble for typing words.
If you like to know movies starting from 1950s, type 1950s, m, o, and before we finish the word movies, Google already have suggestions ready for us.
Couple words that we can add with keywords:
// wiki ( ex: work wiki)
Searching information from Wikipedia, the biggest free online Encyclopedia, created by all humans.
// define ( ex: define word)
We can easily find the definition of any words today. Just type “define” in front of any words, and Google will fetch the definition right away.
// =
If we want to do conversions, just do this: 1 inch = cm
100 f = c
3 euro = usd
One more fun thing to do is that we can even let Google do the calculation for us. Simply type the questions, such as 8 * 9-9+35, and this is what we will see after hitting the enter.
If you like to know more ways to search on Google, here is the official How to search on Google by Google.

How Does Google Make Money, If It’s Free to Use?
Most of young students I have met don’t seem to be bothered by why there is so much free stuff flowing in the web; somehow they get used to enjoying the freedom of the web.
I get this type of money-making question often from elderly students, who somehow wonder how the employees in those companies make a living. Of course, it would not be possible to sustain a company only by selling stocks in Wall Street. All companies need to make real profit in order to stay in the game, and Google is making a mega profit by selling ads.
Selling ads? Where?
This is another good question I usually receive after “selling ads.”
Google generates revenue primarily by delivering relevant, online advertising and that accounts for 96% of their $58.8 Billion sales in 2013.
This is Google home page and it is hard to see where it places all those billions' worth of Ads, because there are no ads here at all.
What Google does is post ads for clients each time when we do the search. According to our search, Google would post the ad on the top, bottom or side of the search results and Google doesn’t try to hide it; it shows “Ad”, right in front of it.
How many people click those ads? Apparently a lot. Since Google only posts ads related to users’ search results, this does make most users happy to see those helpful ads and increase the chance of clicking them.
What other things does Google do to generate profit? It analyzes website traffic, optimize search results and keyword search for companies. And it also sells apps, books and music for Android cellphone system through Google Play.
If you are interested to check out details of yearly revenues and expenses, here is the annual report from Google.
