Basics of Google searches

I have an extensive listing of favorites (bookmarks for Netscape users). Often I will remember reading an article and I need it to help someone with a post. If I can't find it in my favorites, I go to Google.

To help people out with the way google works, I'm giving a little tutorial.

Search for coral food possibilities

If I type in the words coral food, I will get listings of every single page that has the words coral or food or coral food together.
http://www.google.com/search?sourcei...8&q=coral+food

If I put quote marks around coral food like this "coral food" it will only return pages that have both words together. Coral Food in quotes

If I wanted to find all pages that have the exact words coral food but I also want the page to contain the word borneman, I can structure a search like this "coral food" + borneman
I get these results "coral food" + borneman
