Simply Google

Google Logo Google is often seen as a one stop searching spot for online research, although it’s clear that things are a little more complicated than the one search box that show up at first. Right from the Google home page there are additional search options: images, maps, and news to name a few, as well as a drop down to searches of Google video, Google books, Google scholar, and even a search for blogs.

Beyond these, there is even a Google government search and a Google code search.

Of course, you can always go to Google’s Product page to get the full range of services, but what if you could search any of these without having to go to different pages?

Now you can, and it probably says something about the complexity of searching that there are this many different search options. To see almost all the different ways of searching Google, you should take a look at:

Simply Google

If you take a look, you will find 35 Google search boxes, as well as links to other Google products and search boxes for some of Google’s competitors.

Of course, another option is that you can always ask us, because remember, Google is still not doing a great job of searching the deep web.
