like "I like gr*" doesn't return 'i like grapes' and 'i like granola (but whole words work like 'I * grapes'. returns 'I love grapes' and 'I have sex with grapes') You're supposed to be organizing the worlds information here. You're the biggest search engine around and you don't currently support that? When were you planning on getting around to it? |

This is the stupidest example ever: "So instead of asking [who invented the parachute?], you can enter the query [the parachute was invented by *]," explains Google Research Scientist Hiyan Alshawi." why? because the asterick doesn't help for shit in that example.... SOMETHING will virtually always come after the whole beginning of the sentence, unless the LAST sentence on a page somewhere happens to END in the sentence fragment "the parachute was invented by." with a period at the end. "the parachute was invented by" will have virtually same exact results as "the parachute was invented by *" I think the only reason they each have a different number of results is other weird algorithms that go along with the wild cards, or an asterick wild card searching for itself, an asterick (that text with the asterick above is on many pages). So I searched for "a trampoline was invented by" vs "a trampoline was invented by *" and got 189 vs 179. but whole word(s) wild cards can be quite useful. |

Another thing I hate is searching for stuff then clicking on the cache (so the words I searched for will be highlighted), only to find this: These terms only appear in links pointing to this page: the trampoline was invented by * ... Then don't even show me that page... I'm only interested, in... you know... what I SEARCHED for. a link links to a link that links to a link that links to a link that links to this page. We thought you'd like to see it. |

And you know what ELSE.. no, I guess I ran out. But they should make school hours longer because children smell bad and are annoying. Even though I don't go outside to see or hear them, just knowing they are out there with their booger eating faces annoys me. And yes I eat my boogers too but that's beside the point. It's all up on the side of the point and shit. This point is comfy I think I'll use it for a pillow. |

are you serious if you enter 'i like gr' or 'the parachute was invented by' (without the asterisk) it will do what you want. anyway, if you believe what you saying would improve search so much then go ahead and make your search site. it will make u a millionaire . |

That's too fucking hard; I want them to do it. I recently used the whole word asterick to find a quote from this old game "your mother was a hampster and your father smells of elderberries" or something. I put "smells * elderberries" and sure enough some put smells like and some put smells of. I bet some people mispelled elderberries so "smells * eld*" would have been better. |

The parachute was invented by Leonardo da Vinci in 1515. |
