Computer skills: a search tip
For me, search skills lead to constant self-tutoring. The tutor shares a technique he’s noticed.
“word” ≠ “word ”
Searching my posts for the word fire, I got many results in which it was part of a word – Firefox and fireweed, for two examples. Yet, I wanted to find instances of just fire, but itself.
I wondered if typing in “fire ” instead of “fire” would change the results to give only those where fire stands alone.
What do you know – it worked:)
