The Best New Thing
My friend showed me this great new service from Google over the weekend...
She told me that if you text Google (46645) and put in a search term they will email you back the results. This works best if you are trying to find a store or restaurant. (Go to the Google site to see what Google Mobile is capable of - local listings, flights, weather, driving directions, glossary, movies, sports...much more)
The charge is only how much it costs you to send and receive text messages.
So let's say you are looking for "Baja Fresh, Miami FL" - text that to 46645 and within a few minutes you will get back a list of Baja Fresh restaurants in Miami FL. I just tried it out and got back from Google (in less than a minute) the two locations (in Brickell and Coral Gables), with their full addresses and phone numbers. Amazing!
Try it out - it is way cheaper than calling 411 and it is fast and easy!
