Google Adds "Verbatim" Search

Recently, Google discontinued the use of the "+" operator in its search queries. The "+" operator was used to make a search look for the exact query given to it by the user. Google phased this operator out supposedly to make way for special Google+ searches. But this caused an uproar in the specific-search community as they would now be forced to type "all""their""search""queries""like""this". So Google implemented a Verbatim option for its search queries. For the full story, check out the Wired article.
