'Hacks' is good. In the computer world, a hack is a clever workaround or trick to get a computer or software to do its job better. 'Crackers' are the nasty ba****ds.

You can use an asterisk (*) as a replacement of any word, like who wants to be a * will return better results than without the asterisk.
siteOMAIN (no space) just searches that domain.
intitle:WORD (no space) searches page titles for that word
filetype:TYPE (no space) searches for that file type, obviously
cache:URL (no space) ..finds a cache of the page, of course
Basically all I know about.
