Stuff That Doesn't Suck
New Utilities Added to Google
Google seems to come up with new and useful searches about every month or so. Previously, we have posted about package tracking, patent and registration lookup then it was about unusual language preferences. This month there is handful of interesting additions.
- Area Codes, 617, bring up maps.
- UPC codes, e.g. 073333531084 or 036000250015, bring up some information about the product.
- Flight numbers, e.g. usair 50, provide links to flight tracking.
- Vehicle ID numbers (VIN), e.g. JH4NA1157MT001832, CARFAX report on what kind of car and its status.
- U.S. Postal Service tracking numbers link to package status.
