Today's Webtip: Power Searching

an online course for people who want to find more interesting things.

I'm very curious about the Googles latest offering. A six part online course in search techniques sounds interesting, and it should be interesting to see how they decide to incorporate their various online services into an e-learning context.

Of course, when it comes to the G, the first question that comes to my mind when looking at a new toy they want me to play with is "What's in it for them?".

They are promising six interactive classes (in real time I guess) that should help you level up your Google-Fu. Maybe they are hoping to indirectly provide people with some examples of just what Google Groups, G+ and Hangouts are good for...

If you are curious too, you can register to take part until the 26th of July, but the first class takes place on the 10th of July. You'll even get a piece of paper for your troubles.
