Get lost and found on your phone
6 novembre 2005
Posted by Matt Waddell, Google Mobile Team
You know that saying, "Wherever you go, there you are"? Now it makes sense to me, thanks to the new
Google Local for mobile
. In fact, it inspired me to write this song. Enjoy, and happy trails. (You'll need Macromedia's
Flash Player
to hear it.)
You can also
save the music file
to your computer. (Right-click in Windows, or control-click on a Mac, and save.)
Get lost and found on your phone.
Walkin' 'round a new town,
looking for a way around.
Askin' locals for their thoughts
'bout nearby Chinese restaurants...
they tell you to get lost --
get lost and found on your phone.
Take Google Local on the go,
get listings, maps and aerial views.
Call directly from your search results
and even keep search history too.
Download from Google today.
Wrestlin' with a paper map,
tryin' to figure out just where you're at,
how to get from point A to point B,
better leave the directions to
J2ME
.
So you can get lost --
get lost and found on your phone.
Zoom in, zoom out,
drag maps up down left right and you'll see...
where you want to go on your mobile phone,
in lucid satellite imagery.
Download from Google today.
Place Google Local in your hand --
first, you need a data plan.
Your phone must handle Java too.
It helps if it is somewhat new.
To download, here is what you do:
Browse Google dot com slash g-l-m on your desktop.
Tell us 'bout your phone,
and we'll show you a link to the file in a blink
and you're ready to start...
