Google Search – Reading Level

Google has added “reading” level as an advanced search feature. You can search for sites at a given reading level or have Google tag hits with a reading level. At first, how this feature might be useful may not be obvious. Consider that you might be an elementary teacher searching with your students for online information about “dinosaurs”. You likely are not going to be interested in the sites of Paleontological Societies.

I think this is a useful feature. I wish it was a feature I could turn on and then not have to set for each of a series of individual searches. Still, it is nice to know it is there.
