CMSC 2 Week 2 Exercise 2 Part 2: Synthesis

Synthesis:  How can effective google searching ease finding information in the internet? Which feature will be most useful in your field?

Effective google searching eases finding information in the vast internet. This can be done by simple yet helpful tricks and techniques. One example is by using phrases rather than whole sentences and questions. Another is by using Google's Advanced Search capability. Using the "-" sign for excluding unnecessary words that you don't need to come up with a more specific result is also a good way.

As a Computer Science student, the best feature that will be the most useful in my field would be Google's Advanced Search. Using it would imply more accurate and precised answers by eliminating useless topics and specifying the required ones. With this, researches can be done easier. Resources can also be traced more accurately.
