Tips - Searching Tip: use site feature, e.g site:hp.com

July 22, 2006

For example,

  1. Searchig for CommandView 1.08 for 11.11 at hp’s sofware depot www.hp.com/go/sofware.com turned up nothing.
  2. Searching at HP’s Business Support Center, turned up a version for 11.00 and 11.23, but not for 11.11.
  3. Someone pointed out that for public searches, use Google and someone pointed out to use the “site” feature, so I searched for "site:hp.com  download  commandview  11.11" using my favorite search engine, Dogpile*  … And it worked very well!!!
* Dogpile searches Google, Yahoo!Search, MSN*Search and Ask.
