Searching Google Putting a MINUS after a word will remove a term from a search: Peru -vacation gives all Peru results withOUT vacation results. Putting a PLUS after a word will add term from a search: Peru +vacation includes all vacation results. Apple + "F" will give you a find window in the bottom of Firefox. It will highlight all text you type in... If it is RED- nothing on that page matches that word. |
