Most people know Spotlight only to search document or application by its name. But there are a lot more than that. Spotlight can do math calculation. Just type for example 4*5, the result result will automatically appear on the fly. Or try typing the word alabaster, the dictionary will show you its meaning on the fly. You can then press enter to see more result from the dictionary.
More, you can also search any image that has 800 pixel in width. Just type width:800, for example. Or to see only the gif image that has 800 pixel, just type gif width:800
You can also combine the +, - “” signs, just like when you do in google

That is interesting. I was not aware of all the functionality that spotlight offered.
