Googling the Recent Web

There are times when you might want to search for the latest news on Google but the search results aren’t usually the latest. Google’s Advanced Search gives you more power than you can possibly think and one of the best uses of the advanced search is searching for pages that have been recently indexed.

  • Click Ok and exit from the Bookmarks Manager
