2. Google Image Search – Okay, so this is part of Google, but do you know of all the sub-searches available for images? Say you want to find a picture of an apple, but may be you want a blue apple for some strange reason. Choose search options, colour, and boom! Blue apple.
– Image search also has various other search specific fields such as a clipart versus a photo for that slideshow you’ve been working on or even a facial recognition search.
