In the previous three installments of this series, we covered a wide variety of different search features and strategies using the (currently) most popular search engine: Google.com

Today, I am going to take one of the earlier techniques of using the "wildcard" function "*" (the asterisk symbol, you know, the star like thingy above the #8 on your keyboard) and have some fun with it. Let's begin.

According to Google: "A wildcard in a Google search query can be indicated by an asterisk and will match one or more entire words of text so that the query matches a contiguous sequence of words." Here's an example:

A search for [anti-spyware software *] will return searches for "anti-spyware software programs" and "anti-spyware software applications". You could also search for [ * spyware] which will return searches for "about:blank spyware", "remove spyware", "get rid of spyware", "anti spyware" and many others.

You can also ask Google a question using a wildcard like this:

[how do I remove * spyware]

This query will return results about how to remove certain types of spyware like:

"how do I remove Kazaa spyware" and "how do I remove Xupiter spyware" etc..
