They are at it again!  This time, google has introduced a product to help the world find your content. With Google Base, you can add any content and then describe it by using attributes so that others can access it. You can also search Google Base to find information other people have posted.  For example, you can search Google Base for Real Estate, then narrow that search to a specific location by zip code.  When we tried it, we got a list of FSBO's hosted by different FSBO websites!  Remember, it is a beta product so there will be some glitches, but it is worth taking a look at!

Using search engines can be overwhelming if you are not specific in your requests.  It helps to use some basic math.  If you are looking for two things that appear in the same page, simply use the + key.  The same is true for the - key.  For example, if you are looking for New York and the Statue of Liberty, then search New York + Statue of Liberty.  If you do not want any references to the Statue of Liberty, then search New York - Statue of Liberty. Using math while searching can really save time.
