Just darned useful

Step One: Compose an SMS with a search in it.
Step Two: Send it to 46645 (GOOGL).
Step Three: Wait while Google searches, and sends the result back to you.

Yes, it's Google SMS, and it's free.

While not as clean/crisp as Google SMS, another free service can be found at www.upsnap.com

Well, it's official...


Google is taking over the world.
Gmail accounts saturating the market
Google Desktop Search
Google SMS
Google browser (Or so the rumers say...they do own gbrowser.com)

Only thing left is the Google OS....now that is scary

Just came across this and tried it out. How freakin' cool is this?!? It is faster than opening TH or PIE and hitting the yellow pages. Pretty awesome!

So, EH, now that you've sold your BBerry to harley, what are you carrying now? Still the HP?

That was an extra that I sold him. I still carry my BB device. I have a 7100t and a 7230. I have to say that I am addicted to BB now that I admin a BES server.

The thing that really wins me over on the BB device is not having the tweak and patch it to keep it running and stable.

Actually, harley is a "she", and dare I say it, the coolest "she" on the boards (with apologies to the jades )

I thought the fun of having a ppc was the "tweaking and patching"; I wouldn't know what to do with myself if I didn't have to do that!
