MessageI do use quotes, but are there other sembals that i can use when
performing searches using google? The reason why i replied this way is because
sometimes i feel as if google doesn't quite understand what i'm searching for
specificly. Is there something that i can do to narrow down my search terms
when performing a google search? Thank you for any information that you might
have.

If you want specifics then you must use quotes and other symbols to tell
Google what exactly ou're looking for. Try using the advance page of google.
It's a link called advance and then use the opperaters to assist you in making
specific searches.

Hi, Thank you for that information but where do i start? I usually have a
problem because i can't seem to get google to use the specific words that i
want in the search. I usually get more results then the ones that i was
looking for. I would appreciate any information that you might have. Thank
you.

Hello David,
Are you asking:
How can I use Google with a screen reader to produce more precise
results?
You may want to look at the advanced features of Google. This allows a
person to narrow down the options without needing to know wildcards to obtain
more precise results. There is also a book "Google It" sold by National
Braille Press that may prove to be useful.
HTH,
Sharon

Hi list members. I'm trying to see what i could do when using google
in order to perform a better search for "computer programs should have screen
reader accessibility built in from the beginning"? My question is what this be
a better way of wording what i want to search for as apose to what was written
in the subject line? What i'm like to try to do is to create an outline that
would suggest the title, next the thesis statement then the three points that i
need sources for in order to support both the title as well as the thesis
statement. I'm not sure where to go or how i can best proceed with this topic.
I would appreciate any information that anyone might be able to give. Thank
you.
