ChaCha rocks! Okay, I just found out about this on my sister's blog (thanks Amy!) and had to share as I am always up for sharing good things (and I needed a non baby post!). There is a new service called ChaCha and you can text any question to them and they will text you back an answer within a few minutes. Pretty neat huh? Just text your question to 242 242 or call 1-800-2ChaCha and one of the guides will answer it for you. I can see this coming in handy when I am out and about with a kid too (directions, weather, healthiest menu choices, etc). So sign up and give it a try and think of me when you have all your questions answered!
So, to share another wonderful text messaging service,
DIRECTORY, DIRECTIONS, PRICING PAL, & MORE - TEXT 46645: Google has a great service too that allows you to text a name of a place and they will text you back with the address and phone number of the location (i.e. nearest Kinkos, Jamba Juice, bookstore, etc). Just text the name and city you are in to 46645! They also will do directions if you text in directions first and then location and destination. and another BONUS they will price comparison shop for you, so if you are in a store and not sure if you can get a better deal online or at another store, you can text "price" and then the name of the product and you will get results of their shopping online results! Or type weather and location name to get the weather there.
Isn't technology wonderful sometimes!!??

Yay! Glad you like ChaCha! I am getting some really neat questions, so I'm learning a lot. It's a cool concept.
What will they think of next?? Do you ever wonder how we survived without cell phones, gps devices, etc? I remember pulling out the "Thomas Guide" to find a street!! The times have sure changed...and we're not even that old!!!
