We all use Google to an extent, for either search, or images, or creating documents, web pages, or just email.

The Google cheat sheet is a document published by Google as a quick reference to there search engine's specific operators to help us find what we are looking for fast.

Yes of course we all know that we can pretty much just type what we are looking for in Google and find it but this little gem makes it even sweeter..

That's pretty cool... I didn't know Google can do many of these things.

Here is my contribution to some of the cool things that you can do with Google... If you are looking for a restaurant address and number, you can just text (from your cell) restaurant name then your city (e.g. Olive Garden Tucson) to GOOGL (46645) and you will get a text back within seconds that lists all the Olive Garden restaurant addresses and phone numbers in your city. It will only cost you what your provider normally charges you for a text message.

This is probably old news for some, but if you haven't heard about this before... it's pretty cool, huh?

Yeah, i am familiar with some of those operators and have used a couple of them during searches. However, some of those are completely new to me, especially the "advanced operators". Thanks.
