Whenever you have queried for something on Google Search, you would have got the search results based on their popularity. But, there are times when you would have liked if the search results returned were latest.

It's possible though, Google has a hidden feature which lets you sort the search results based on the date.

Consider, you are looking for "Gmail", then the normal URL will be something like this

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Gmail&btnG=Search

Google Search Results without Sort
The results returned using the above URL will be based on their popularity. Now, to sort the results based on date, add the parameter &as_qdr=d in front of your normal URL as shown below

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=Gmail&btnG=Search&as_qdr=d

Google Search Results with Sort
The results returned by adding the parameter are sorted results so that you can easily know which are latest updates.
