Google supports several operators which gives you more control on search results. There are too many search operators to remember. This is my continuation of Google Search Operators.
cache:
The query cache:url will display Google’s cached version of a web page, instead of the current version of the page.
Example: [cache:www.ihacc.co.cc] will show Google’s cached version of ihacc's homepage which may different from current page
define:
If you start your query with define:, Google shows definitions from pages on the web for the term that follows. This advanced search operator is useful for finding definitions of words, phrases, and acronyms.
For example, [ define:computer ] will show definitions for “computer”
filetype:
If you include filetype:suffix in your query, Google will restrict the results to pages whose names end insuffix.
For example, [ artificial intelligence filetype:pdf ] will return only pdf files that match the terms “artificial” and “intelligence”.” You can restrict the results to pages whose names end with pdf and doc by using the OR operator, e.g. [ email security filetype:pdf OR filetype:doc ].
This is similar to the filetype. Which is an undocumented alias for filetype: operator. Like pervious example, [ artificial intelligence ext:pdf ] will return only pdf files that match the terms “artificial” and “intelligence”.
Note: There is a space after or Before the colon when using these special operators.
