Cool Things

I've been running into a lot of cool things lately. Lots of them courtesy of Life Hacker and the balance courtesy of StumbleUpon,which is where I found Life Hacerk in the first place. Here's a quick summary of some new faves:

  • Google SMS –This is a demo of the Google SMS system that allows you to text GOOGL (46645) with queries like weather Denver, CO and it will text you back with the results. Damn cool.
  • Send to Phone, in sort of the same vein, is an extension for Firefox that allows you to highlight text in your web browser (say directions, or prices on an item) and send them to your phone as a text message.
  • DHTML Lemmings is a fantastic time-waster … the classic Lemmings game played right over your web browser … yowsa that's cool.
  • Adventure Quest is a cool, free, online RPG that you play in your browser. It's not exactly complicated, but it is entertaining.
  • BackPackIt is sort of a web-scrap book where you can keep lists, notes, and if you're willing to shell out some $$, photos and files.
  • Sims 2 for your phone is showing up this September and from the looks of it, I think it will be very cool
  • The Hipster PDA organizes you in simplicity and style
