Here’s one everyone can use. We all use Google anyway…
The folks at Usabilityviews.com have done a nice single access point for all of the specialty Google searches from one page. Being part of the generation trained by “what you see is what you get” (WYSIWIG) interfaces, sometimes I just plain forget all the options Google makes available from its understated “Advanced” link.
Usability professionals are renowned for their helpful ways at recreating interfaces and menu options in general. So now they bring us:
Simply Google http://www.usabilityviews.com/simply_google.htm
Their description:
“Simply Google is a page with search boxes that are linked to various Google search engines, for faster results. You can search for maps, news, books, bargains, scholarly articles, music, video, blogs, catalogs, computers, and much more by using the appropriate search box. What will they think of next? Well, if Google could invent a search engine that my wife could use when she misplaces her car keys, I’d be eternally grateful.”
