Google Mobile
You're on the road on the way to a big date. But you can't find your way, because you've never been to this place before! You whip out your phone to look up directions – and you realize that you don't have Google Maps on your phone. In fact, you don't have a data plan on your phone to begin with!
You're at a dinner party, and someone brings up the topic of totalitarianism. You want to join in, but you glance around the bookshelves and there's no dictionary anywhere.
You're back on that date, and you're done with dinner. You want to stay out, so you suggest a movie. But you don't know what time the movie starts!
You're running late to the airport, and you don't know if your plane is on time or not – the suspense is killing you!
Okay, you get the idea. Enter Google SMS, a service that has existed for some time now, but I sure didn't know much about it. So, I can safely assume that not everybody knows about it. So here we go! Google SMS is a FREE service where you can text Google for help in a variety of different ways, including weather updates, driving directions, movie times, a glossary, and even sports scores! It's insanely simple and easy to use (since it's Google and all), so check it out at the link above today if you want a TON of services without the hassle of a data plan!
