Quickwrite 10/11

Using the Bolean search connector will definitely come in handy. For past research papers, I was always overwhelmed with how many results I'd get back after typing in what I thought were really specific keywords. Using connector words like "and" and "not" will be very useful. In the example in the book, the guy was able to narrow down a search from like 200,000 results to about 350. All he did was put words in quotations and use connector words. Finding legit articles for my disciplinary literacies paper will be a lot easier.
