In my old post i wrote about the hidden features in Google search engine such as Google's built-in calculator function and Currency conversions. Today i will show you some search tricks that you should know when searching something in Google search engine.

1) Searching Musics in Google search engine

Just copy and paste the code in Google search engine and just replace the values in red.
