Google conversions

[Ffish]

I just HAD to share this!

You want to know how many yards is X metres, or vice versa. Simply type into Google "90m in yards" and hit return (no need for the speech marks), and it instantly returns your required calculation.

Works for all other conversions too, like weights, Forex, capacities, temperature, etc etc. It's amazing!

Apologies if you already know of it, but I was just told about it, and I think it's brilliant!

Also conversions between hex, binary, octal and roman numerals amongst others can be handy.

Try:

2007 in Roman Numerals.

How many BTUs in a mars bar? Try:
