Need to find something, SMS your query to Google
OK, here I start by saying another day and another talk about Google Service (this is a old service though)!! Google offers SMS Services where one can query Google with search terms and Google Servers will SMS you with the results. Not so good thing is it does only work in US and UK only at this stage.
You can search from definations, share prices, driving directions, phonebooks, zip codes, sport news etc.You can even check movie timings! I think when I call my local directory assitance I pay them $1.xx for the service. So this is all free for now on Google SMS and you only pay for the sending SMS cost that your service provider will charge you. I am sure this will evolve as the time passes by. Above all it is free for now.
Check out FAQ page for more information on Google SMS. So if you are living in US or UK and are covered by one of these operators then just try punching in "46645" (GOOGL)on your mobile and send a message with a query. I will wait till this service gets to Australia. Have Fun!
