Five cool Google features you're probably not using

Google does more than search and e-mail, if you know where to look

Interesting stuff, been using google translations since forever, extremely helpful tool for pretty much anyone.

 

[AstroTurf]

Only thing on the list I don't use is charts, because, charts...

No need to type in translate ... to ... just bread to zulu. Likewise with define just type in the word. Better yet grab the Chrome Extension for double click to define.

Never used the diet, since I'm not on a diet. May use the flights for the end of the year trip, but the rest of the tools I use.

One thing I use Google for quite a lot, is currency conversions. Just google 10 usd in zar, and it gives you the conversion.

That the long way, try the short way

Also use it for this but if i forget then it is off to XE.com, so awesome.

As for the diet tool, i am gonna try that . I also use the dictionary because of some forumites just showing their cleverness

Interessante dinge, is die gebruik van Google vertalings sedert ewigheid, uiters nuttige hulpmiddel vir pretty much enige iemand.

And back again - normally a good test to see how well it works.

Interesting stuff, use Google translations ever since, very useful tool for pretty much anyone.

You forgot Google Image search.... busting picture thieves since it came out

I know it's technically legal, but this as much piracy as anything that we do on TPB. This is actually much worse because they make money out of the advertising.

I'm going to put a big sticker on my TV that says "Source: HBO"

I use 2/5 of those. Another cool feauture is flight alerts where you get flight schedule updates like delays arrivals etc as cards in Google now. Extremely helpful I always use it

Yeah one more left out is Google traffic, my phone starts telling from about 4pm how traffic looks and if k@k really hits the fan it will create a formal notification that it's not a good idea to leave. Scary thing is I never said "this is work or this is home", Google just knows....

Now also seems to check your gmail and alert you to flights based on emailed confirmation. I fink they freaky, but cannot help to like it a lot.

Lol. I use the dictionary often but that's it. Google has so many free tools these days I can't keep track anymore. Some of the stuff you can do in Docs and Sheets is quite impressive actually even against Office.
