Google Fun

Google has many hidden features beyond just searching. These include using calculators, getting quick facts and answers to questions directly through search queries, and exploring Easter eggs. Some tricks allow viewing images from a site or "destroying" websites for fun. Advanced searches can uncover private information like usernames and passwords if security settings are not configured properly.

Google Fun - Tips and Tricks 

The name "Google" originated from a misspelling of "googol,"[1][2] which refers to 10100
(a 1 followed by one-hundred zeros).
We all love this search engine and cant survive without it because of its quick and
precise search results which others search engines lack. I have been using Google for
last couple of years and have been playing around with it for quite some time and like
others I have too realized that there is more to Google rather than just using it as a
search engine

**Having Fun With Names:Have any one of you try searching your name on Google, to
see what world has To say about you? This act of searching your name on Google is
called “egogoogling”.You can have more fun with the names by adding “is” to it, for
example put this quote in Google search box “Susan is” and here is what you get
Our little girl Susan is a most admirable s***, and pleases us

**Ripping Images:If you want to see all the images on the site use “site:” operator, for
example go to image.google.com and type the site:techenclave.com

**Google calculator: Google has build in calculator which can be used to mathematical
calculations. Just go to Google web search and type 10+7*3-12
Google will respond with 10+7*3-12= 19.
Time for some fun with Easter eggs with Google calculator just type
Answer to life, the universe and everything
Entering this will result Google calculator showing “42”.
The fun continues type seconds in a year in Google search box ,it will result in
1 year = 31 556 926 seconds

**Google Question and Answer: have you ever tried to find answers to your questions
with google,just try following queries type in Google web search Albert einstein’s
birthday and voila ;
Albert Einstein — Date of Birth: 14 March 1879
This works because google has built directory which answers your certain questions so
that you don’t have to go to particular webpage to find the particular answer. Play around
with it by searching any thing you desire like
Bono birth place
Where is Eiffel tower
When was star wars released?

**Destroy Google: Have you ever wish to destroy Google or any other website please go
to netdisaster.com and enter the website you wish to destroy and have fun and you can
do it in multiple ways like you can send meteors,foold it, nuke it, shoot it, paintball or
chainsaw it , cover it with flowers. etc.
**Google Speaks The Truth/Googlebombing: A "googlebombing" is when a group of
people get together trying to push a site up to Google rankings, try tying the keyword
“failure” and hit the search button, what do you see?(didn’t I mentioned that Google
speaks the truth) and type the same keyword and click on I’m Feeling Lucky and see the
result. Another fun with googlebombing, just type “Arabian gulf ” and click on I’m
Feeling Lucky and read carefully read the page not found page. Did u enjoy it? . Type liar
and click on I’m feeling lucky and it takes you to another truth (enjoy it). “Litigious
bastards” was a rude googlebombs and it was targeted against SCO group, for its
infamous attempt to sue companies like IBM and other who used Linux as well as Linux
users.

**Google Hacking: There’s a sport called “Google Hacking” which is all about searching
seemingly private websites using Google. In fact you can only find public pages on
Google and not private(password protected). You can find poorly configured WebPages
and exploit it, however use the following strings at your own risk, you might land up in to
one of the honeypots
Search for: "a syntax error has occurred" filetype:ihtml
Google will search for pages with ihtml (which sites are using informix).

Finding Private Files:


Search for: (password|passcode)(username|userid|user) filetype:csv
You will find files containing user names and similar

Finding File Listings


Search for: intitle:index-of-last-modified private
You will find pages which list files found on the server. A related query which finds FTP
Intittle:index:of ws_ftp.ini

Finding Webcams:

Finding Weak servers:
