Google Power User Tips: SERP URL Parameters, by Stephen Spencer, Search Engine Land (Sep 3)
Page of instructions on hacking the Google search url to get more results, refined in some way. These are intended for the SEO practitioner but searchers can use a few of them.
Example: Turn off personalized results. PWS stands for “personalized web search” - set pws=0. http://google.com/search?q=cheese&pws=0
Some syntax is mentioned here too: ~ for synonmys, * for wildcard, nn.nn for number range.
