Google recently made some important changes and updates to their search engine features. However not many people know what these changes are and consequently these people cannot get the maximum out of Google Search.

Google Feature Search (version 2.0) is one Firefox add-on that can help Firefox users better refine their searches.

When the add-on is installed and running, users can refine their Google searches to achieve the desired results easily, without having to go through irrelevant and unrelated search results.

For instance, Siemens is Europe’s largest engineering conglomerate; on the other hand, Siemens is also the S.I. unit for conductance, an electrical property of electrical conductors. Therefore if a user was to search for Siemens, the desired results would not be achieved straightforwardly.

However, your Firefox browser equipped with Google Feature Search’s toolbar can get you the desired results within seconds.

Here is how the toolbar looks:

search

Suppose we had to look up the unit of conductance Siemens, we would scroll down to the appropriate field, like so:

queries

Choosing the unit conversion option, one can then enter Siemens and the relevant pages for Siemens, the unit of conductance would be shown.

Similarly to look for the results you desire, all you need to do is first select the appropriate category.

Google Feature Search improves Google Search for Firefox users and is bound to save a lot of valuable time for everybody. If you are a Firefox user, the Google Feature Search add-on is a must-get.
