Two Google ‘functions’ i didn’t know about

By Chewie. Posted in General | Comments

Ah i love the internet, each day it seems that i find something else i didn’t know about and this time it is with the wondrous Google.

I am sure a few people will have known about this but its the first time i have seen it. I remember finding the Google calculator a fair few years back and this brought back some memories.

The first one is ‘population [country]‘ which will return the population of a country in GCalc style

The second one is ‘Area [Country]‘ which provides the land area.

I am sure there are plenty of other ones related, but i found these fun :)

    Hey Chewie, it's great to hear about Google is still coming up with more Easter eggs within the SERPs, there usually quite fun facts :)
  • Yeah i love the little time servers/easter eggs that Google put into the site. I remember setting my friends language into pig lantin when Google was still new, he couldn't change it for days :)
