Google has done it again!
Google SMS allows you to ask questions in a specific format via cell phone text messages (SMS) and get the answer almost-instantly.
How cool is that? It's free (minus the default text charge) too!
Example...texting "300" followed by your postal code to "466453" (Google) will send you all the showtimes for the movies 300 in hamilton.
Example 2: texting :" G Andrew LLoyd webber born?" will send you the first few web results from a google search...from which I got his birth date.
Example 3!: Sending :" Blue Jays" will send you the score of any current game, their last game, and the date of their next game.
Isn't that incredible? Check out the website. You can play around with questions on it.
I've already played around a fair bit and my favourite one is driving directions.
