I have said for years my secret superpower is getting information out of Google (searches, mostly). I'm a librarian, so this is a tremendously useful superpower.
(I will do nearly the exact same search as someone else, and get the info in 20 seconds that takes them 20+ minutes, sometimes hours. Most recent notable success was a friend who half remembered a Methodist hymn she'd learned as a kid, gave me a broad sense of the way the tune went, and I sent her a link to sheet music under 30 seconds later.)
It also works with other search tools, but not quite as brilliantly.
