Powerful mobile search tools

I recently had the addition of a Garmin nüvi 350 GPS to my life. It has been incredibly useful for everything from going somewhere new to finding the nearest coffee shop. Sometimes it doesn't have a particular business's address or the address is outdated. The following are some powerful mobile tools that I've found to be very helpful.

1-800-GOOG-411
Goog411 is a free 411 service from Google. Call to get the phone number or address of a business. (Which it can send you in a text message.) Watch the video for details.



Also useful...

GOOGLE SMS
Mobile/SMS search from Google. Local weather, business listings, game scores, stock quotes, and more. (Also free, but text messaging fees from your provider may apply.)


4INFO
Another mobile search service, similar to Google SMS. They should have a YouTube video too!
