Intelligent Google Search
Oct 15th, 2009 |
Sitting at the computer working on my sermon and Matt at the desk next to me come out with a discovery. Or so he claims.
If the question typed into the Google search box begins, “How do I…” the answers are not as sophisticated as if you were to type, “How does one…” To dumb down your answers the solution is to dumb down your question.
Type in “How do I…” and see the sort of questions Google anticipates from you. Now try, “How does one…” and see the difference.
I gave it a go. I got, from the top of the each list:
For “How do I…” I got “How do I become famous?”
For “How does one…” I got “How does one week work?
I don’t think it worked for me!
