Google introduces wireless service

by Ragnar Schierholz

Google today launched a beta test version of Google SMS, this new service will allow US wireless users to query Google for almost any type of information.
While I don't think that cell phones in general or SMS in particular is an appropriate technology for general web searches, I can certainly imagine more focused o specific search types well suitable for SMS and well needed in a situational context where I couldn't access any other media. Will watch where this is going.

One such specific query that I could imagine useful would be a dictionary as offered by LEO which also offers an SMS interface.
