    You only need add the name of the song/artist/singer.

    Example: ?intitle:index.of? mp3 jackson

    intitle :restricts results to documents whose title contains the specified phrase

    For Example “intitle:fox fire” will find all sites with the word “fox” in the title and “fire” in the text

    Check fight schedule
    One more thing you can do with Google – Check Your Flight Status. You only type : Air India 144
    This will show your air plane Departure and Arrival times. Try it… your flight name + Flight number.

    This will display the current status..

    @Roshan, the time new york tip doesn´t work if you are outside the states I believe. By the way the spam protection is getting more and more difficult to answer ;)
