Synonym Search :

You may want to search not only for a particular keyword,
but also for its synonyms. Indicate a search for both by
placing the tilde sign ("~") immediately in front of the
keyword. Extremely useful!

Calculator :

Google has added a calculator and converter to its standard
search form. Just enter what you need calculated or
converted, click on search, and it'll automatically display
the results. Very cool and useful! Try 24 degrees centigrade
in fahrenheit or 24 miles in kilometers or 17 in binary or
(G * mass of earth) / (radius of earth ^ 2) !

Prefixes :

link:url Shows other pages with links to that url.

related: Invokes GoogleScout to find other pages similar in
linkage patterns to the given URL and at a similar
hierarchical level. The URL must be exact. In other works
related:notess.com and related:www.notess.com find different
results.

site:domain restricts search results to the given domain.

allinurl: shows only pages with all terms in the url.

inurl: like allinurl, but only for the next query word.

allintitle: shows only results with terms in title.

intitle: similar to allintitle, but only for the next word.
"intitle:webmasterworld google" finds only pages with
webmasterworld in the title, and google anywhere on the
page.

cache:url will show the Google version of the passed url.

info:url will show a page containing links to related
searches, backlinks, and pages containing the url. This is
the same as typing the url into the search box.

spell: will spell check your query and search for it.

stocks: will lookup the search query in a stock index.

filetype: will restrict searches to that filetype.
"-filetype:doc" to remove Microsoft word files.
"filetype:pdf" to search only pdf files.

daterange: is supported in Julian date format only. 2452384
is an example of a Julian date.

maps: If you enter a street address, a link to Yahoo Maps
and to MapBlast will be presented.

phone: enter anything that looks like a phone numb

determine a subset of the most relevant results from the set

as results for the search request. R Sort all results Note:
Providing sort by date on queries with large result sets may
incur performance penalties. L Perform a look-up on the date
associated with each document and return the date
information for each result returned; but no sorting is
performed.
d1 The format of the value returned for each search result
returned is set to YYYY-MM-DD)

the links to the page
