Text Google 

google 466453

Did you know that you can text Google at 466-453, or "Google"---it is sweet!

Among the things Google can tell you:

But a few examples:
sports scores, text "NY Rangers score"

weather, text "w Durham"

movies, text "m 27707"

stocks, text "the stock symbol"

local stuff, text "Harris Teeter Durham" (a local grocery store, Google replied with their address and phone number)

define words, text "d tonsure" (the shaping of evergreens by clipping, or a bald spot resembling the shaven crown or patch worn by monks and other clerics.)

flights, text "ua 440"

...and we saved our favorite for last, calculator, text "144*18"

Rest assured there are even more applications depending on just what your cellular device can handle. Follow this link.

The reply is almost instantaneous. The Clarion Content is lobbying the good folks over at Google to support the Google, "I feel lucky" feature via text. It would be such an argument solver to be able to text Google, "23rd President" or "Robin Williams real age"...

no shoutout for telling you about google text? i feel betrayed. :( just kidding!!
 
True, true. I did hear about it from you!!! Whoops, an unintentional oversight. Where are the fact checkers when ya need'em? :o

Note, I discovered last night that you can text Google for translation. Text the letter 't' and the word or phrase you want translated and the languages involved, e.g. 'Spanish to English'...
 
wow i didn't know that one! that's awesome.
