Google Labs

Just came across Google Labs when I was playing with Google Groups. Google Labs is where Google shows off its "beta" services. There is the Google Define, which recently "graduated" from Google Labs. With it you can search for definitions of a word by using define <your-word> in Google. For example, if you want to search for the word dude, you would type in define dude at www.google.com. Another service of interest is Google Local. In the only small test I performed it seemed to return more relevant results than Yahoo Yellowpages.
