Google SMS search at your fingertips

Staff Reporter

Bangalore: A new version of Google SMS Search brings itself to mobile phones, making the scope of the term “googling” wider and intensifying the meaning of the word “instant”.

Launched nationally, this service is available on both GSM and CDMA phones.

After crickets and astrological updates, one can get the location of an ATM or PNR numbers, weather and stock updates, and even word meanings with the help of Google SMS Search, just like the searching on the internet, without placing complicated stings before the query.

An SMS to 97733-00000 from anywhere seems like the answer to many questions.
