95% people don’t know these hidden features of GOOGLE


Chat With Aliens
Every day Google answers more than one billion
questions from around the world. But here are 15
things you might not have ever known you can
do with the world’s most powerful search
engine.
For example, the Mars Feature on Google Earth
5 allows users to explore the surface of the red
planet and even talk with an alien! Just enter
“Meliza” into the search box and watch as your
taken to a section of the planet where you can
“chat” with a local alien. It’s just a chat bot, but
it’s fun to try. Give it a shot.
Do a Barrel Roll
You can make your Google page roll on end by
entering the phrase “do a barrel roll” into the
search box and hitting enter. It’s a fun reference
to the classic video game Star Fox!
Track a Flight
Just enter the desired airline and flight number
into Google’s search box and instantly see the
arrival and departure times right in the results.
Now you can keep up-to-date with any flight
without having to constantly check the airline’s
website.
Fly Using Google Earth
Visit Google Earth, press CTRL + Alt + A
(Command + Option + A for Mac), choose your
aircraft, and fly! You can even simulate flying an
F16 Fighter Jet.
Search Faces Only
Sometimes an image search can lead to a
number of unwanted results. just click search
tools, hit “Type”, and select the “Face” option to
narrow your results to exactly what you’re
looking for. It works for .gifs too! Just choose
the “Animated” option.
Use Google as a Proxy
If your school or office stops you from visiting
certain sites, just use type
“cache:WEBSITENAME.com” into the search box
and avoid the block. It’s that easy.
Search in Klingon
If you’re a big fan of Star Trek, try using
Google’s custom Klingon search. It’s a fun way
to put a new spin on Google. It will even correct
your grammar! And if you don’t speak Klingon,
don’t sweat it. Google has their own Klingon
translator and dictionary to help you out.
Track Packages
Just enter any package tracking number into
Google to see exactly where it is. Now there’s
no need to log in to the USPS, UPS, or FedEx
website!
Reformat Your Gmail Address With Dots
You can create multiple email addresses by
simply adding a dot (.) anywhere in your Gmail
username. Because Gmail doesn’t recognize
dots as characters, messages sent
to yourusername@gmail.com and y.o.u.r.u.s.e.r.n.a.m.e@gmail.com will
all go to the same place!
Synonym Search With a Tilde
Adding a tilde (~) to your search terms will tell
Google to include any related search terms or
synonyms you mayhave missed. This improves
your results page and can help find exactly what
you’re looking for.
Beatbox With Google Translate
It may sound odd, but typing a random string of
letters into Google Translate, then hitting the
listen icon will prompt Google to beatbox
whatever you wrote down. Try it yourself by copy
pasting “pv kkk pkkk pvpvpv ppkk pddd bschk
bschk pv zk pv bschk pv pv pv bschk bschk
bschk kkkkkkkkkk bschk bsch” into Google
Translate and giving it a listen.
Cut Down Email Length
If you only want to reply to a particular section
of text someone sent you, just highlight that
area before hitting reply. This will add only the
chosen section to the quoted text and leave the
rest out of your reply!
Search Like Elmer Fudd
That’s right, Google Preferences lets you search
in any language. Even Elmer Fudd. This is a
great trick to show the kids. Just go to
Preferences, click “Language” and choose “Elmer
Fudd” There’s even Pig Latin!
Browse The Classics
Google Book Search lets you thumb through the
pages of classic books, all from the comfrot of
your computer. It’s a great way to see if you’ll
enjoy a book before you buy, check out, or
borrow it! You can even find the latest
magazines.
Play Games on Youtube
Visit YouTube, pick a random video, and simply
type 1980. This will automatically bring up a
missle defense game where you will have to
protect your video from an impending attack!
Fail, and your video will crack apart. This is the
perfect way to kill time while waiting for your
video to buffer.
