I’ve known for a long time that Google will do your sums for you. Head to google.com and put in 20×10= hey presto it’ll throw the answer back to you. In general the answer is displayed for you before any potential website results.
Now if you do the same and you get a rather shiny little calculator where you can get slightly more advanced with your calculations.

Thanks to Damien for pointing it on out twitter yesterday. I end up using the calculator feature on google every day or so yes I’ve a calculator lying around somewhere and I could just open up an application I’ll still find myself throwing calculations into Google.

I'm a web designer by day and by night I like to dabble in web design. At Blacknight I work on lots of different things templating this (Blacknight Blog) and that (Blacknight Store), creating this Dropped.ie and helping create that (Getting Business Online). Daily I get to work on lots of different things be they marketing, support, design or development related. My cat (Squishy) seems to turn up regularly in strange places and might betray my interest in photography.
