Google search as calculator
Authored by: chp on Jul 10, '07 12:02:17AM
Google search will recognise and compute a lot of calculations, including trigonometric functions and unit and currency conversions, see:

And if you use the Google toolbar in your browser, the answer appears as a tooltip as soon as you type, you don't even need to load a web page.

Sure, this requires a web connection, and Google might snoop on everything you type, but in terms of convenience this is the best I have found so far.

NB: I am not affiliated with Google, just a random user.
