Great thing - for those times when I actually know where I am.

This pretty-much knocks the **** out of the Yellow Pages, huh?! Let your phone do the walking.

you can get weather too

send 'w ZIPCODE' to GOOGL (sms txt) and you can get the local weather.

send 'directions START to END' to the same address and get driving directions.

Or, and this is my favorite, send 'pizza ZIPCODE' and get local pizza places/addresses/phone numbers
