Three Google Search Operators to Try

Three Things I Like About This Video

1. Slight Accents make everything better.

2. This presentation is more interesting to watch than the normal tutorial because the audience can see Phil Bradley talk as he is presenting. He may not be all that pretty, but he is visually interesting.

3. The content is focused and unusual enough to make an audience want to know what's next. I know just enough about Google search to know that I don't really know much about Google search, but these operators were ones I had never heard about before.
