Searching Google in a Snap
I was really honored when Lori Abrahams (SL Lor Fredriksson) asked if I would be interested in presenting at the DEN in Second Life. I had talked about it with a few fellow ed-techies before, but had never really jumped on it. This time was different.
Lori and I chose to focus on one of the Google tools, so I selected searching strategies as the focus of my first-ever formal Second Life presentation. Please consider joining me at the new DEN Auditorium on Wednesday evening, April 29 at 5 PM SLT ( 7 PM CST, 8 PM EST). I will be talking about:
- Search Features
- Web Search
- Insights for Search
- Language Tools
- Book Search
- Scholar Search
- News Search
- Blog Search
- Google Alerts
- Custom Search Engines
If you can’t make it, or you’re not into virtual worlds yet, take a look at the slides I posted on Slideshare so you can get an idea of all the things you can do to find the information you need IN A SNAP!
P.S. Don’t forget to bring your Google Account and password with you.
