  Book Information

Google.com is one of the most popular sites on the Internet
and is used around the world by millions of people every
day. Sure, you know how to "Google it" when you're searching
for something--anything!--on the Web. It's plenty fast and
easy to use. But did you know how much more you could
achieve with the world's best search engine by clicking
beyond the "Google Search" button?

While you can interface with Google in 97 languages and
glean results in 35, you can't find any kind of instruction
manual from Google. Lucky for you, our fully updated and
greatly expanded second edition to the bestselling Google:
The Missing Manual covers everything you could possibly want
to know about Google, including the newest and coolest--and
often most underused (what is Froogle, anyway?)--features.
There's even a full chapter devoted to Gmail, Google's free
email service that includes a whopping 2.5 GB of space).

This wise and witty guide delivers the complete scoop on
Google, from how it works to how you can search far more
effectively and efficiently (no more scrolling through 168
pages of seemingly irrelevant results); take best advantage
of Google's lesser-known features, such as Google Print,
Google Desktop, and Google Suggest; get your website listed
on Google; track your visitors with Google Analytics; make
money with AdWords and AdSense; and much more.

Whether you're new to Google or already a many-times-a-day
user, you're sure to find tutorials, tips, tricks, and tools
that take you well beyond simple search to Google gurudom.
