Something I have always thought of as a secret weapon in my skills is that search the Google has generally yielded good results or I find I am alone in my problem. I have found that others do not do this as well, often times they search - get nothing, come to me for help, I search and get what they need. Regardless there is a interesting game from MS research which shows you a page and you search for it (backwards to the norm) and score points for how high it appeared in the rank and if you didn’t use common phrases.

My gripe with it is that it has a timer (how many can you do in set time) and since it needs to load the pages, us poor South Africans with no bandwidth it makes the game go slower. I figure I could get 4 or 5 more pages in with decent bandwidth. Oh well, check out PageHunt

Thanks to Alfred for the heads up.
