Let me Google this for you!

How many times do we get bugged in the IT world for things that can be found very easily on Google? Being a power searcher (my opinion) and knowing the tricks of searching the internet I find myself constantly answering questions from friends that can simply be found by doing a search.
Here is a site I have found that will help you train your struggling friends. It is called “Let me google that for you” and is a great resource.
Give’em an answer there happy for a day, teach’em how to search and there happy for life 8-)
How it works:
- Go to the website http://lmgtfy.com/
- Enter your search string
- Click the button
- Copy the link created below and send to your friend
When they open the link they will see an animation showing them how to type a question into Google and hit the submit button. When completed they are left on Google’s site with the results of their search.
You gotta love it!
