So, it’s my first day back from vacation in LA, and I’ve already got a nerd tip to start your year off with a bang: Google SMS.
Google SMS (Short Message Service) enables you to easily get precise answers to specialized queries from your mobile phone or device. Send your query as a text message and get phone book listings, dictionary definitions, product prices and more. Just text. No links. No web pages. Simply the answers you’re looking to find.
There’s lots of query types, from business info to calculations to zip code lookups. So the next time you’re on the go and need the number for that resturant that you’d like to make dinner reservations at, or you’re wondering if $20 is a good price for Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, or you don’t know what the word ‘peloria’ means, try Google SMS. Of course, read the instructions and examples so that you know what you’re doing. =-)
