Power Searching Google Drive

Google's superpower is search and to really narrow down on what you're looking for, it's important to be familiar with the advance search function.

Google indexes any file stored in Google Drive. Not only can you search for words in the title, but within the document itself. Using the advance search, you can pinpoint your results to a specific file type, owner or date.

By combining the URL Google Drive uses to display your search results with Google Chrome's search engine function, you can start a search from any page. In other words, you don't have to go to Google Drive first to enter your query.
