Unit Conversions

Growing up with the metric system, I'm still not used to think in Feet, Fahrenheit, and Ounces. While googling for yet another conversion tool, I've found out about Google Calculator which supports all kinds of conversions. Do a Google search for

5250 meters in feet

and you will get the answer right from the Google Calculator: 5250 meters = 17224.4094 feet. This also works for other types of conversion like 46 celsius in fahrenheit or 2 ounces in grams.

The Google Currency Converter works very similarly. Search for

1 USD in CHF

and Google will tell you how many Swiss Francs a US Dollar is currently worth.
