Our assignment was to Google ourselves and see how much we could find based on our online presence using more advanced search techniques, such as using quotations around the search query for results with that exact word or phrase, the minus symbol to remove results containing a specific word, an asterisk to fill in unknown words in a phrase, "site" to search only within a specific website, and "related" to find similar sites.
I learned that you can use an asterisk to fill a blank when searching on Google, as opposed to an underscore.
