GOOGLE REALLY IS FAIR AND BALANCED! And it does MATH! Check it out!

[radwriter0555]

It already gives you killer search results. It already gives you phone and address listings. Now, it’ll do your calculations for you. When visiting www.google.com you can enter your mathematical expressions in the search box (i.e. 5*20/16.5%) and it will display the results for you.

Now that is what I call FAIR AND BALANCED baby!

5. And if you have Mozilla/Firebird

You can just type your calculation into the search box and hit enter. Google will come up with the answer.

About halfway down the page are instructions for Googlifying your IE installation.
