Google delivers parcel search

edited December 2003 in Science & Tech
Google has just introduced a new search feature that turns up shipping infomation for Federal Express and UPS parcels.

[blockquote]Google takes people directly to the FedEx or UPS Web page containing the location of a particular package when they type in their parcel tracking number into its search site. The new "Search by Number" feature, announced Friday, also brings up information linked to other kinds of numbers, such as patent numbers, equipment identification numbers issued by the Federal Communications Commission, and airplane registration numbers from the Federal Aviation Administration.
