Google is certainly a useful tool for finding information and works best when you know what information you need. A good SA knows what information s/he needs, what to ask the Google, and usually s/he knows how to find the information without Google. Google will not, usually, give you the answer if you don't know the question. This is what I call "Google-guessing": blindly poking around discussion group and mail archives looking for clues and/or cut-n-pasting commands and scripts without knowing what they do. Sometimes that works, but it isn't the activity of a good SA. -- Perfection is just a word I use occasionally with mustard. --Atom Powers--
