In Te Ngahere we have been learning about something called Smart Surfing. Smart Surfing is learning about how to search questions on Google by only using keywords. I learnt how to search by using keywords in my sentence. I also learnt that if you don’t use keywords it doesn't come up with what you are mainly looking for. For example: If I were to ask Google "what do spiders eat" Google will give me every page that says what or do. The keywords would be spiders and eat, so the whole question would be spiders eat? since "spiders eat" doesn't make sense you can change the word eat to diet so it is "spiders diet". Those are the main keywords so Google will give you all the pages that have spiders and diet. It will be better because it is narrowing it down to more information that is most likely what you are looking for. This is better to do because if you have the word “what” in your sentence, Google finds all of the pages that start with “what”. In the future I will now use keywords in my questions to search on Google and it will come up with the right answers.
In the future will you use keywords when you search questions on Google?
