I found it very interesting that you could type site: and then what ever qualifiers you wanted to help get the appropriate materials for a specific search. I had no idea you could do that!
Now I'm looking for a list of all the ways i can narrow a google search down to hopefully displaying only credible sites and sources of information (or more of them).
This is great! I know when looking at websites and what not I look for gov docs or nj.gov etc. since i know its legitimate information but i didn't realise you could actually put that in the search field and have it narrowed down that way for you by google. I will definitely be using this little trick in the future when helping people with their questions.

Challenge #4 part 1- google blog
I was reading in the official google blog about their Google Latitude program for the iPhone. This feature allows iPhone users to see where their "friends" are located on a city map. You can restrict who sees you and what not but it looks like it would be a fun and easy way to see where your friends are at if you wanted to join up with they while you are out or not. It is now available on the iPhone and iPod touch. I thought this was interesting even though i am not an owner of any i technologies. Seems pretty cool that they are trying to keep up with current technology and apps that people are interested in.
