I am running a series of hands-on workshops this autumn in London, and the first is on Advanced Google Searching. It is being held on September 23rd at Just IT, 7 Sandy’s Row, which is near Liverpool Street.
Google is the first port of call for many of us when it comes to searching the Internet, and with more data and services being added all the time it seems the obvious place to start. More information, more search features but not necessarily more relevant results. This hands-on workshop will look at the latest developments in Google and how to focus your search to obtain better results.
Topics covered include:
- recent developments and new services from Google
- how Google personalises your results
- how Google is incorporating social media
- essential advanced search commands
- how to use the new options to narrow down your search for more relevant results
- how to access and use the specialist tools
- image, video and news search
- build your own Google Custom Search Engine
This workshop is suitable for all levels of experience. The techniques and approaches covered can be applied to all subject areas.
Please note: this workshop concentrates on Google and does not cover the same topics as my recent UKeiG “Changing Landscape of Search” session.
