Ever been on the road and find that you need a phone number for a business? Try sending Google a text message. While out of town last week this feature helped me countless times.
Here's how you do it:
Create a text message and in the "To:" field enter Google's phone number: 466453
In the body of the message type: name of business Sacramento, CA
You can also enter the zip code to make the results more specific.
For example, I would text 466453 and the message would read: "round table pizza 95826"
From there you hit Send and in about 10 seconds Google will reply to your text message with the results. In this case it gave me the name of the business, the address, and the phone number. In all, Google returned 3 results, it gave me the Round Table in my neighborhood plus two other Round Table's nearby.
This is a great free service provided by Google and it can be a real help while out and about.
