oday we have a special edition of SearchResearch.  I'm attending the annual conference for Investigative Reporters & Editors and giving a 1 hour (fast!) tutorial on some aspects of advanced Google searching.  I figured everyone might like to see this presentation, so I've put my notes here...  This also serves as a TipSheet for the attendees at IRE.
