SnapAsk is a way to get information using e-mail. It's simple:

1. Add to your cell phone or Blackberry's address book. [Download vCard]
2. When you have a question, e-mail with a command in the subject line (body of the e-mail can be blank)
3. In less than 30 seconds, you'll receive an e-mail with the information!
