[LEARNED] Controlling Search Results

Google features many search commands, and here are the following commands I have known before todays class :
  • Search "super mario bros" : Click on the animated coin block shown on the right hand corner of the screen. Click on it to make the block bounce up shoot coins just like from the original game. 
  • Search "do a barrel roll" : The Google website will turn around.
  • On Google Images, search "atari breakout" : You can play the good old game of Atari Breakout. 

Check out for more commands here

The commands that I have pointed out above is used for fun. However, in todays class, I have learned about "useful" Google Search commands. The "useful" Google Search commands will help you organize the search results by actually making the number of search results fewer. These are the following I have picked up from a documentation from class.


  • Site:url

  • Filetype:key / ppt etc
  • “Exact phrase”
  • -exclude
  • Related:url
  • Define: word
  • word* (complete)
  • Word * (word and another word)
  • Reverse image search (Google Images)
On todays class, I have learned an important point about handling massive data searchers like Google :

"Data can be reliable depending on the way you use it, and to find the correct data to use, organising is the best solution."

[IDEAS] Two Types of Slide Designs

I believe that there are two types of designs for slideshows. The first design, is based on making each slide simple with images and minimum text. This method gives the viewers static image on what the speaker is talking about. The second design method I use is the "Material UI Design". Since it is a UI design, the whole design interacts to the users with geometrical and photographic elements animated and placed according to a layout. (the layout guidelines are set by Google). For example, if you were to tell a user about a new feature, this is what Material UI Design will solve the task: https://storage.googleapis.com/material-design/publish/material_v_12/assets/0B4kv-3uZbS1qQVhNbFlVdlNsOEE/engagement-featurediscovery-single-flow.mp4

Here is what I learned about the writing structure for your blog:  Blogs can have many styles of writing by the author. Because there are many styles for writing blogs, it is important to select and use an effective writing style. Just like writing an essay, the blog posts should have a structure. As a blogger, you want the readers to understand your idea and experience. Plus, you want the readers to get inspired in the end. Here is how the structure of an essay will help your blog post more effective. First of all, the introduction will give the readers the basic idea of your whole post. The body will let the readers understand your post. Lastly, the conclusion will give the message you wanted to give out to the readers. Plus, with a little twist, your blog post can inspire people. As you can see, by using the essay structure for your blog post, you can make an effective and inspiring blog post for your blog.
