Program: Things You May Not Have Known You Can Do With Google

Thank you

I learned more than I imaginved I would about the home page of Google.  I had guessed he program would be talking about other Google features.  Neat!

Excellent format and really nice way to make up a program.

Absolutely cool!  Yes, please do a more advanced program on Google!

Very useful info, under the category, "I never knew that".  Thanks.

Awesome! Sure can keep me from asking a lot of dumb questions! Thanks!!

Google is great. But also try Dogpile.

So glad I was able to learn these tips!

what did we ever do without google!  Very interesting program.

very cool! I couldn't resist trying all of the Google searches and thought it was really interesting. I have to say I will never search Google the same again. thank you!

This was very informative

This information was very enlightening on ways to search through Google. Very informative.

Great program!  The information will be useful.

Wow!  So many things I didn't know about how to use Google!  I have a whole new internet world to explore!  Thank you!

As always, Rushton delivers with the Google program, topping off another stellar meeting.

Pretty nifty. Love to hear about shortcuts and handy tips on the computer.

I chose the program on Google and found much of interest and application. Your meeting and program format was friendly and easy to follow - unlike some other eClubs I have attended - congratulations, keep up the good work.

Frank Duxfield, Rotary Club of Kaikohe, New Zealand, District 9910.

Thanks for providing this service.

The financial update was informative; as was the questions concerning eClubs. I enjoyed the program on Google and would be interested in intermediate course

Great information!

Great Meeting

What a very useful and entertaining meeting! Thanks.

I learned some new things about Google and now I am anxious to try it.  Thank you!

great info on Google! Short cuts that I didn't realize I could use-thanks!

Enjoyed the Google tutorial, and would like to add this:  You can place quote marks around the entry in the search box, Google will only return hits on the string, not on each of the individual words.

GOOD PROGRAM! 

I knew a few, but not most of those search stratgies.  Thank you.

Great program! Fun! Thanks.

Very usefull

A good program to study often.  Thanks, Rushton

loved the article on google

Great meeting. I did not know so much information was easily available on Google.

loved the horse story

Thanks for the opportunity.

Awesome program.  Took some time practicing the ideas and will probably develop into a program for our club. 

Outstanding!  Very educational.  Please do more programs like this!

Very good hints, unfortunately the weather and zip codes in Mexico search don´t work but the other stuff its good.

Some interesting facts I did not know!  Google can do sooo much!

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THE GOOGLE STUFF!!! :)

J

great info.

Very interesting and your site is easy to use.

This was a great meeting. I was able to use the "snap" feature on Windows 7 to show two screens side by side to follow along with the program.

I always come to this site to make up Rotary meetings. This is one of the best I've participated in. I use Google all the time, but I had no idea about most of the tips offered by Mr. Hurley. I  look forward to another one of this programs.--Davilynn Furlow

Thanks, this meeting works.  The meeting for the current week does not.  June 4, 2010   

Thanks, this meeting works.  The meeting for the current week does not.  June 4, 2010   

FANTASTIC!

I like the variety of items you cover in your programs.

Great help to those of us who are not a tech savy user.

I use google everyday, so I was surprised to learn so many new, fun, things about the search engine.  I would love to have more tech programs.  Thanks.

Good stuff to know... Thanks, Rushton.

Good info 

Thanks

Love the google information!  Lots of new information to try out!

good info in the google presentation - lots more even under the google umbrella

WOW!!!!  Educational and entertaining!!  A great combination!!  I would love to see more on the subject.

Good program!

I had no idea Google was a calculator! 

Great program: Would be interested in other online usage. More programs from Rushton Hurley would be appreciated.

Also I am mailing out a check for $20.00 to cover the most recent two meeting I have attended.

Good information on how to use Google.

Great work on this weeks meeting. 

Good program. I had no idea you didn't have to hit return for some searches. I would love to see the intermediate course.

As also very enlighting and I loveed the answers from the 2nd graders.

Enjoyable meeting, especially the story about the two horses.

I use Google all the time -- this was great!

There was a make-up on the Internet in the past, and it was felt that it was interesting to carry the same content as a usual regular meeting.It was possible to feel it to the very familiarity. Thank you for an interesting story.

Special thanks to Rushton for his tips on Google. I am looking forward for future techno tips that can be used to help folks who are not too familar with serach engines and the power of th emerging technologies.

Omar

Ruston I have done the Rotary program a second time to grasp the google search page.

well done with the programs this

Rotary year.

Very helpful, particularly for non-techies and folks too busy to look at various Google uses.  But saves a world of time and frustration!

Rushton Hurley.- Very interesting tips.

Larry Thanks for the bullets about eClubs.

I love being able to participate in a meeting while sitting on my balcony drinking coffee on a beautiful Sunday morning. Thank you so much for providing Rotarians everywhere with this opportunity.

Robin from the breakfast club Rotary in Juneau Alaska

To all those that liked the program, I hope it was helpful!  To those that didn't, I still hope it was helpful.

Would appreciate more tech topics.  I technically challenged.

These functions of Google are very interesting.  I have used some of them but will add the others to my repertoire.  Google is really amazing in terms of what it will do, over and above what it will find.

Google is everything! I can't even count how many times a day I google something. Thanks for the hot tips. . . learned a few new tricks!

Thanks for the meeting!

Trremendous program with the graphics to demonstrate the claims being made.  I have used many of the Google features, but this program introduced many other features that can be useful.

I could learn a new fun part of Rotary Club. Thank you.

Quite enjoyable! My first experience with eclub and I would do it again sometime. The google presentation was well done too. Thanks!

Great Program

Great program.  This could be useful in our club. 

Thank you for making this possible.

Brad Johnson, Brownwood Rotary Club, Brownwood, Texas

This is my first e-club meeting.  It is slick.  Thank you for developing this program.

Good meeting.....I like the story of the horses

VERY INFORMATIVE. I GOOGLE ALL THE TIME.

Hello and greetings,

It was just like I attended a meeting in person ( like in any club) the formalities of calling the meeting to order, discussion, Sgt at arms etc. the little humor added was very nice.

Yours in rotary

Ramdas Pai

Thanks, very helpful. How about information about iGoogle for another program.

Loved the humor.

Love the international flavor!

Thanks Rushton!  Bring on the next lesson.

Good program Ruston,I use the Google for maping trips here in Australia,last weekend I drove to Alice Springs 3600 Klms

return trip tobuy cattle, I use the google for printed map .

some interesting and new things I didn't know google could do for me

thanks

Great program.  Other things from Google that add value are Google Wave andGoogle Docs.

First of all I was in tears over the blind horse story... how touching! Thank you. The Google Stuff was just great. I sit in front of a computer all day long and use Google throughout the day... but who knew!!! Some of it I did... but wow, not all of it! Thank you again. Have a great week everybody. Claudia

Rotary leaders look for the rotarians with bell to make sure, they will make up. thanks for the e-club, we don't feel that sometimes we are blind..

Learned some things about Google. Flightstats looks like it will be useful

I have never done a make up at an e-club before and enjoyed it very much! took me about 40 minutes to go through everything and I enjoyed the program very much - learned something. Great Program! Thank you! I'm from Danville, VA - and in the Google vein, I will say 24540

I especially liked the idea of keeping track of members volunteer hours.

Very Kuhl

Enjoyed the Google tricks.  I didn't know that search box could do so much!

I enjoyed reading about a Rotary Club meeting in the southwest.  Thanks,  Bob Lane

Very informative program

very fun pages and a good format

This was a good meeting, I used the quote at the beginning for my thought of the day to my leadership team, I also emailed the Horse Story to some friends of mine. I learned something by attending this meeting. Thanks

This is a great way to learn.  I am familiar with google, but think it could be very helpful to some of the older members who do not spend much time with computers.

thank you

Very useful information!

One of the more interesting and usefull programs in a while.

Learned alot about Google !!

Great Meeting!

Good tips, Rushton. I especially appreciated the search for Google search features at the end. I've spent a while looking at that page, and there's all kinds of interesting stuff. Thanks!

This is too much to take in one reading, it should be printed and read several times to get the most out of it.

Thanks for allowing me to visit with you and attend your meeting via email.

jim clark

Tremendous program Rushton. Thanks for the quick tips. Enjoy Montreal.

Larry: Congratulations for your speech in the Goodyear - White Tanks Rotary Club, I think that it would be good to have a “power point” program so we could present to the different Rotary Clubs where we live what is and how an eClub works.

Google is a “Cool Tool”.

this was a fun way to refresh on google.  I would love more technology tutorials

Didn't get the same results as Rushton, wondering if it's because I use a Mac?  

Good tips.  Very interesting.

The generation of google search is the current future of information.

INTERESTING

As a relatively new member to Rotary and a traveling consultant, I try to make up as many meetings as possible as I travel, yet the meetings don't always jive with my schedule.  I sincerely and profoundly appreciate the opportunity to get online and participate in a program whenever, whereever.  Thank you so much

Great humor!

Rushton, thanks for making a search easier.

I loved the answers of the second graders to the questions about moms...too cute...

Wonderful Article.

Thanks a lot Rushton.

I very much enjoyed the inspiration ... the two horses (thought it applied in my life where I have been blind) and the Action/Vision paradigm.

It's always great to make up a meeting and learn something too.

I'm glad to have your club as a resource.

I enjoyed reading the story of the two horses.  I guess it is important to know when to lead and when to be led.  Our club I think is too small to support the platform for an eclub; however, the larger one in San Angelo, Texas might be interested.

NO comments to add, just thank you for the opportunity!

Google made RGHF work. Go to Google and put in the two words early leaders. Or Rotary history. You'll see what I mean. RGHF is highly visible. In our early years, we begged Rotarians to add links to their websites. However, we soon learned that Rotarians don't often visit their own club or district websites, but the use Google. www.historysearch.org is a customized Google search which will find material on RI that you will never find by going to www.rotary.org 

Hooray for Google and all that they do.

Okay Google Joe Kagle, or even Jack Selway.

interesting meeting

Interesting google ideas.

Another great meeting!  I was not aware that RI is interested in all of the service hours we do.  I learned a few knew things about Google and I'm hoping that someday we'll have a meeing on the more complex and advanced searches that we can do. 

And to bring it all back in to perspective was the story of the Two Horses.  Animals are amazing. 

GREAT PROGRAM

Great Program

Program provider Rushton Hurley teaches us some of the additional features available with Google, the well known internet search engine begun in the late 1990s by Stanford University PhD students Larry Page and Sergey Brin. Turns out, many local searches can be conducted by entering a keyword along with the appropriate zip code. In many cases, striking the ENTER button is not even required. Rushton also introduces us to some helpful websites, regardless of how you get there, such as U.S. Geological Survey and flightstats.com. You can always count on Rushton to provide an interesting program. Thanks!

Good program.  I am already trying out some new things as a result of viewing this.

Awesome!

Very cool.  If all of us "read the manual" on the internet sites, the tools learned would make us even more addicted!  Great Program.  Google 201 next!

5-24-2010Rushton Hurley’s Google tutorial is great! It’s clear, direct, and the fact that Rushton made it interactive–I really did open my browser and work through each step–made the learning all the more concrete! I especially liked the intuitive course of thought that Rushton followed which is close to the way our minds move from one subject to another. I also bookmarked the Google for Educators link which looks like a real treasure trove of information.I write routinely on financial matters and being a better researching through mastering Google’s search capabilities will be an enormous help!Thank you Rushton!Yours in Rotary, Brooks 

This course its very important for all the members from the E-CLUBS, thank you for you interests in helping us.

Thank u Hurley for schooling me in google.com

I use Google for many questions and searches. I also use Yahoo Search. It's interesting that sometimes one search engine has a great deal more information than the other. (I often feel as if I am living in Buck Rogers time, remembering when I was a kid we had a party line on the phone -- which was always connected by a phone line.) Ah, times they are a changin'.

Thanks to Google, I found this e-club!  

Love Google, especially the voice activated search on the iPhone and iPad. You get real use to having any information you want at your finger tips or voice comand.

Very interesting program.

This Google stuff is amazing!  Thanks, Rushton, for advancing our basic knowledge of Google searches.  I am looking forward to future lessons in technology.

Enjoyed the meeting

Good Program

Be truthful....have you "googled" yourself?

I learned some new tips.

Talk about learning something new everyday - this program certainly did that!  Most interesting, though it made me do all kinds of Google searches to explore each of the examples given...and more!  Most informative.
