    Actually, I’m more excited about google’s new SYNONYM searching. Instead of searching based only on your exact keywords, it searches synonyms of those keywords. By using a tilde, you indicate which words to synonym search.
    For example, the query “soccer ~pictures” might also automatically search for things like “soccer photos” and “soccer graphics”
