Punctuation Search Results Upgraded By Google

By: Navneet Kaushal
2012-01-24

In a fresh upgrade involving punctuation marks, Google has updated its search results. So, now when you search for a ; as in semicolon, you will now get search results. While some of the results are relevant, some may be not (the search for / slash reveals a music band with the same name on top). Here is what the search for ! reveals:

This was reported by Google Operating System that Google was showing results for some punctuation symbols, as opposed to earlier, where it did not index them. Now you can see results for symbols/punctuation marks like:

-.-- Full Stop

-,-- Comma

-:-- Colon

-;-- Semicolon

-#-- Hash

-%-- Percent

-@-- At

---- Carat

-)-- Brackets

-~-- Tilde

-|-- Vertical Bar

-"-- Quotes

-<- Less than/Greater Than

-$-- Dollar symbol

-!-- Exclamation Mark

--- Apostrophe

-&-- Ampersand

- _ -- Underscore

---- Minus sign

-+-- Plus sign

-=-- Equals sign

Do these searches for yourself and see.
