Here at “Tech News for Everyone”, I recently re-purposed an old Windows based laptop and turned it into a Chromebook (that works great)… Follow the source link below to learn more on how to do this.
Quick Tip: The Chrome OS Launcher Is A Powerful Universal Search Tool
For you Chromebook user’s out there, here is a powerful Chrome OS tip that is many times overlooked.
When you tap the “Search Key” (on your keyboard) or hit the circle icon in the lower left corner of the screen (on the app launcher), you are given the power to search for anything. All you need to do is start typing and whatever it is you are searching for will appear. You can search for and find websites, get answers to specific questions, open apps, find files on your Chromebook, etc… For example, in the screenshot below, I clicked on the circle icon and started typing “What’s On My PC” and immediately search results started to populate.
