So i was digging around on google today and saw this:

http://www.google.com/sms/

you can text message google and they send back the search results to your phone. the number isn't 7 digits though so i think it only works in the US.

Anyone use this? Is it free (outside of the cost of text messages)

that is just badass, shame it costs me 10 cents a msg....

yea ive checked it out. SMS is pretty cool

. Those services that sell ringtones and wallpapers work the same way. Send the sms code, it downloads the wallpaper and charges you on your cell bill.

Seriously, that is cool. With all the times I dial 411 and get charged $2... that will save me serious money!
