Explanations:
cache: If you include other words in the query, Google will highlight those words within
the cached document. For instance, [cache:www.google.com web] will show the cached
content with the word “web” highlighted. This functionality is also accessible by
clicking on the “Cached” link on Google’s main results page. The query [cache:] will
show the version of the web page that Google has in its cache. For instance,
[cache:www.google.com] will show Google’s cache of the Google homepage. Note there
can be no space between the “cache:” and the web page url.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
link: The query [link:] will list webpages that have links to the specified webpage.
For instance, [link:www.google.com] will list webpages that have links pointing to the
Google homepage. Note there can be no space between the “link:” and the web page url.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
related: The query [related:] will list web pages that are “similar” to a specified web
page. For instance, [related:www.google.com] will list web pages that are similar to
the Google homepage. Note there can be no space between the “related:” and the web
page url.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
info: The query [info:] will present some information that Google has about that web
page. For instance, [info:www.google.com] will show information about the Google
homepage. Note there can be no space between the “info:” and the web page url.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
define: The query [define:] will provide a definition of the words you enter after it,
gathered from various online sources. The definition will be for the entire phrase
entered (i.e., it will include all the words in the exact order you typed them).
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
stocks: If you begin a query with the [stocks:] operator, Google will treat the rest
of the query terms as stock ticker symbols, and will link to a page showing stock
information for those symbols. For instance, [stocks: intc yhoo] will show information
about Intel and Yahoo. (Note you must type the ticker symbols, not the company name.)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
site: If you include [site:] in your query, Google will restrict the results to those
websites in the given domain. For instance, [help site:www.google.com] will find pages
about help within www.google.com. [help site:com] will find pages about help within
.com urls. Note there can be no space between the “site:” and the domain.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
allintitle: If you start a query with [allintitle:], Google will restrict the results
to those with all of the query words in the title. For instance,
[allintitle: google search] will return only documents that have both “google”
and “search” in the title.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
intitle: If you include [intitle:] in your query, Google will restrict the results
to documents containing that word in the title. For instance, [intitle:google search]
will return documents that mention the word “google” in their title, and mention the
word “search” anywhere in the document (title or no). Note there can be no space
between the “intitle:” and the following word. Putting [intitle:] in front of every
word in your query is equivalent to putting [allintitle:] at the front of your
query: [intitle:google intitle:search] is the same as [allintitle: google search].
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
allinurl: If you start a query with [allinurl:], Google will restrict the results to
those with all of the query words in the url. For instance, [allinurl: google search]
will return only documents that have both “google” and “search” in the url. Note
that [allinurl:] works on words, not url components. In particular, it ignores
punctuation. Thus, [allinurl: foo/bar] will restrict the results to page with the
words “foo” and “bar” in the url, but won’t require that they be separated by a
slash within that url, that they be adjacent, or that they be in that particular
word order. There is currently no way to enforce these constraints.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
inurl: If you include [inurl:] in your query, Google will restrict the results to
documents containing that word in the url. For instance, [inurl:google search] will
return documents that mention the word “google” in their url, and mention the word
“search” anywhere in the document (url or no). Note there can be no space between
the “inurl:” and the following word. Putting “inurl:” in front of every word in your
query is equivalent to putting “allinurl:” at the front of your query:
[inurl:google inurl:search] is the same as [allinurl: google search].

I've always played with the google dork method of pentesting and info gathering, but never really took it seriously until a friend pulled up a bunch of webcams and it scared the shit out of me. Good info guys. Have a great one, thanks again!

Good list but as someone else commented it probably needs to be updated a bit. Just wanted to comment and say some of these also work on www.duckduckgo.com and that you might get in trouble if you use them over and over on Google. Just saying, Thanks for the list :-)
Edit: Not sure if you mentioned it but there is an 'official' site for dorks called www.exploit-db.com.
