Maybe I’m living under a rock and I’m just the last person on earth to know about this…but did you know about google 411? I guess I shouldn’t say I didn’t KNOW about it since my cousin programmed it into my phone December 2007 while we were at the hospital when my dad died, but I guess it just never occurred to me to use it…I just always dialed the 1800free411 and listened to those dumb free ads…but google 411 not only does not make you listen to the dumb mcdonalds song every time you call, it also connects you for free!!

 

I’m turning into one of those old people who is overly impressed by technology, aren’t i?

If you have text messaging, Google also provides a search function for your phone as well. Just text "46645" with what you're looking for, be it directions, telephone numbers, sports scores, definitions etc...and it'll text you back.

The link above explains it a little more thoroughly as well as the syntax necessary.

Before I had my Blackberry, I used it all the time. I still use Goog411 on occasion even.

Also, you made a comment on your blog title. I threw this together (waaay too much free time lately) for you if you like it: http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3047/3773415972_74320672bb_o.jpg

If you don't like it, don't worry about it I won't be offended...lol

Also, I have the raw PSD file if you want to edit bits of it if you like.
