Google launches cinema tool - Web User News Give users what they want then monetise school of thought as opposed to all we get is bloody poor traffic searching for cinemas...
: "Google users can find UK cinema showtimes using a new feature available on the web and mobile phones.
By adding the words 'showtime' or 'films' to a search query, the new Google Films facility will display cinema times at the top of the results. Eg Madagascar showtimes SE1 9LS, displays show times at cinemas near SE1 9LS.
An SMS version is also available, which will text you the showtimes at local cinemas of a film you're interested in. Text the film title and postcode to 64664 and Google will text back the reply. Normal network text rates apply.
Google Films is the latest feature that extends the search engine to the mobile phone, with similar text query services available from Google for driving directions, product prices and more.
Searchers will also get links to film reviews and an overall star rating generated from the concensus of critics around the web. You can also search for films by actor, director and even plot, eg film: tom hanks talks to volleyball, produces results for Castaway. "
