Few of Google Search abilities that are useful but less known

I am feeling lucky

We do always see “I am feeling lucky” button below the search box on the Google search page. Many people click the button but many even do not. “I am feeling lucky” is a button used to directly go to the first result from the search for a keyword without going through the search result page. This function is not available nowadays due to Google instant search. Google instant search directly takes us to result as we type the keyword. However the I am feeling lucky function can be used by disabling Google Instant search.

Google Trends

Google trends is a very good facility that shows the keywords that are being searched on Google in a country. Anyone can easily put (/trends) after the Google home page for their nation and find the latest top search queries in that nation.

Google.org Flu Trends

Google conversion is very useful service. We should try it and we will find it very useful. We can type something relevant that has to be converted and Google converts it for us. For example if we search for “ 100 Indian rupees equal US dollars” , Google will show us the results, we can do it for many measurements.
