A New York Times article last week offered some cool features that I didn't realize were available via Google. For example, Google can function as both the white and yellow pages (search for: phonebook:starbucks new york, ny), or use it to track UPS and FedEx packages by typing the digits of the package number. It can also be used as a calculator by typing an equation and hitting search, or use it to convert units of measure (for example: teaspoons in a gallon or number of feet in 12 miles). Other cool features, track a stock by typing the ticker symbol into the search field, or get a map by typing in a telephone area code or an address. Also cool, track an airline flight by typing in the flight info (for example: United 22).
