Google Searches the US Government
| Someone mentioned on twitter this morning how much they loved the Google Uncle Sam search. Intrigued I did a little investigating. Turns out the advanced search feature has been around for at least a decade. The advantage is that it searches .gov and .mil domains which may only be used by the US government. |  |
