I liked her tips. They are excellent for beginners. I would have loved more advanced ones! Number 7 was new to me! I'm going to checkout ? and * for my searches! Thanks for sharing!
I actually thought it was a pretty good list. Even the "basic" tips weren't too terribly basic. However, I still prefer to use old search, since new search still gives me fits and whenever I do try it I don't get any better results.
