Google via SMS

Well you knew it would happen eventually. Now you can search Google from your mobile phone. But it's not what you think, not via the phone's web browser but via SMS. Yep, just send your message to GOOGL (46645) with say, the work pizza and a zip code. Google responds with a text message listing the pizza places in that zip code!

What is Google SMS?
Google SMS (Short Message Service) enables you to easily get precise answers to specialized queries from your mobile phone or device. Send your query as a text message and get phone book listings, dictionary definitions, product prices and more. Just text. No links. No web pages. Simply the answers you're looking to find.
