Is your search engine good enough for you?Search Tactics?

Tweet

When trying to find something other then basic facts, are you able to find what you want with ease in a search engine? With ease meaning in a few search/clicks in just a few mins. Do you use special characters or advanced filters? Do you use a specialized search engine? Do you have add-ons for your browser? Rarely use search engine? What you use instead? Curious what some people would say they use to find certain things because of something I found that makes a lot of sense to me and surprised it's not auto done. Just a simple FF add-on, so when I make a search and click on one result, it reorders the search result to be more aligned to what I want. I.E Search Dolphins, get results for Miami Dolphins pro football and Dolphins in the sea. So I click on the search result about the Dolphins in the sea, the add-on then searches through first 100 results and makes a new list with priority to the sea creatures. What kind of other simple search effectiveness tips can you share?
