GOOG 411: Map It!

The GOOG just got mapified. 1-800-GOOG-411 now has the option "map it" - you get an instant text message with details and a tiny link. The one I got was http://m.google.com/u/AaC_zD

Interestingly enough, these are just mini URLs, so you can find out what other people are searching for...
http://m.google.com/u/AaC_zE, http://m.google.com/u/AaC_zF, http://m.google.com/u/AaC_zG, http://m.google.com/u/AaC_zH

What I don't understand is why the entire functionality of Google SMS isn't built right into 411. Let's get stock quotes, flight stats and game scores!
