Using 4INFO to look up flight information in seconds by text

Link: 4INFO SMS flight status tracker – Lifehacker.

Before I left the house last night to pick up a friend at the airport, I sent a text message to mobile search service 4INFO (44636) which read ‘jetblue 185” – and was seriously impressed to get more information back about the flight, which was diverted through Salt Lake City and landing in San Diego an hour and a half late – than I got at the actual JetBlue web site.

I think this article was authored by Gina Trapani, editor of Lifehacker.  It’s a fascinating use of the 4INFO service.  I wasn’t aware it was actually that simple!
