Examples:
- define amorphous - You guessed it. This will retrieve the definition of amorphous.
- 123 Lovers Lane, Timbuktu, OH to 40734 - This retrieves the turn by turn direction from Lovers Lane in Timbuktu to the zip code 40734. Pretty amazing stuff.
- movies San Diego, CA - Returns showtimes. You may also use your zip code instead of city and state.
Of course, in GOOGLE fashion, this is free! (aside from standard text message rates)
GOOGLE AWAY, MY FRIENDS!
