Looks like Google striving for diversity has no limits. Froogle is Google's new, and based on the quick whirl I gave it, wonderful feature for finding the best deals for products.

The Google converter, this, the upcoming gmail...when will it stop?! Does it need to stop? My answer is a strict "no", because Google's new features are about as user-friendly as they get.

I was just skimming through this: http://www.google.com/options and this in particular: http://labs.google.com and found out about the "define" feature.

Go to google.com and in the search box, type "define [word, phrase, or acronym of your choice]" without the quotes and brackets.

How about this then: http://local.google.com/lochp

Or http://answers.google.com/answers

The possibilities of Google seem endless, and to think there's a lot more to come...

Go to Google.com and type "# units in units". Example, type: 1 deciliter in nanoliters.

[Edit] Without the period! So: 1 deciliter in nanoliters

Or: 567.2 feet in meters

Etc.

It seems like the only thing it doesn't convert (yet) is currencies. I like http://www.xe.com for currency conversion.

By the way, Google converter isn't just a converter, it's actually a calculator, so you can throw simple and complex calculations at it, too.

Yes, sorry about that, you also don't need the word "convert". I edited my message before you sent this one.

It's LOTS more fun to put in phone numbers and get a person's address. Go try it, it's incredibly spooky. First time I tried it a chill went down my spine.
