A Few More Notes On Google's Numrange: Syntax

A very smart reader notes that Google's numrange: syntax works well for zip codes too: fashion numrange:90210-90300 . (This is the number range I mentioned earlier this week, only I'm using the actual syntax instead of the number..number format that Google announced. I'm just more comfortable with syntax.)

After doing some experimentation, I discovered that numrange: doesn't have to have a minimum or maximum. If you want all numbers up to twenty, this is workable syntax:

fashion numrange:-20

(I know this looks like a negative number, but it's not. If you feel more comfortable using Google's announced format, you can also write this search as fashion ..20 .)

... aaaaaand if you want everything over 20 this'll work:

fashion numrange:20- (or fashion 20..)

This gives me a couple of ideas for a Google hack. Stay tuned.
