Five Handy Things You Can Do with Google's New Knowledge Graph Search

By Melanie Pinola

 

"Earlier this week, Google introduced Knowledge Graph, the company's new search technology that understands "things not strings" and adds rich and relevant details about your query in the sidebar of your search results. Here are five great things you can now do with a quick Google search."

 

"I took the new version of Google Search for a spin to find out just what it can do, and have to say it's pretty useful. To recap, Google now connects your search query with its knowledgebase, which includes Wikipedia and the CIA World Factbook. If you search for a person, place, or thing within that 500+ million object database, Google adds the related key facts alongside the regular search results. (The tech is still rolling out, but you should see it when you're logged into Google sometime in the next few days, if you don't already.)

Google Images

If you’ve got a photo on your PC of an unknown place, person or object, you can use Google’s ‘search bu image’ tool to identify the mystery subject. Click the camera icon in the search box, choose ‘Upload an image’ and select the picture from your hard disk. Google will then display a set of visually similar images, and let you click through to their websites for more information.

Google Images. The most comprehensive image search on the web.

Nik's Learning Technology Blog: Instant Opinion Polls in the Classroom

For a long time now I have been looking for a tool that enables instant polling in the classroom or in the lecture room. I specifically wanted something that; doesn't require registration (especially from the people I'm polling), updates very quickly, works on any platform from computers to mobile devices.

It looks like I have finally found what I've been looking for and best of all it's free. The tool that I have found is Mentimeter and it does all of the above.
