whoa, you should have millions of hits just cuz you can write "backwards"....not only are you writing from right to left, but you are doing so with the letters flipped (so that the image of the letters looks correct to the viewer), kudos, you're a keeper

That was really good actually. I like it when things are simply explained. Thanks for posting this as I've never understood it before now.

The AND operator does not work in Google. Tried it and it left out articles with words containing some of said keywords

What am I doing wrong?
I enter this exact search string into google scholar: “qualitative” AND ("workplace surveillance" OR "workplace monitoring" OR "employee monitoring" OR "employee surveillance" OR "employee performance monitoring" OR "electronic performance monitoring") NOT "review"

the <NOT "review"> part is important. But the search returns a bunch of studies that include the word "review" in the title or abstract. It's as if I was using AND instead of NOT (which I'm NOT)

tralala

the NEAR operator is driving me crazy. I've got this search: (information literacy OR needs OR criticism OR seeking) NEAR (critical thinking OR reading) but the datbase is like: "incorrect syntax". So i try quotationmarks, and I try adding /x with a specification but nothing works. i'm losing it. You're great though :D

(CEO OR COO OR Owner OR Founder OR Co-founder OR Partner) AND ("Health care" OR Clinic OR Hospital) AND Florida NOT ("HR Business Partner" OR "Human Resources Business Partner")

From above search query why I am gettting all HR Business Partners in results where I wanted to avoid them! Please help.

I just wish search engines actually recognized boolean. Cause you used to be able to use -word to omit that word from search results and basically nothing has that functionality any more.

Every year more and more of antiquated measures are being whittled away leaving behind an inferior and basically neutered internet.
