  • If you would like to play with this service, you can demo it here:

    http://mobile.yahoo.com/search/smsdemo
  • 4INFO (shortcode 44636) has a similar text message offering, but provides several additional services that Yahoo! does not: sports scores ("packers" "nfl"), fantasy stats ("brett favre" "priest holmes"), movie times ("movies 92111"), flight times ("swa san jose san diego") and a beta version of mobile download search. All these services can be accessed via SMS (44636), WAP at http://wap.4INFO.net, or email to search@4INFO.net.

    Why 4INFO instead of Yahoo?
    “Both of the major Web search players, Google and Yahoo!, should not feel confident that they can leverage their brands so easily on mobile. These giants could learn a few good lessons from the smaller, lesser-known 4Info…”
