The folks at 4INFO have something both interesting and useful to their already large lineup of mobile web enabled tools. As noted on the 4INFO blog, users can not only get weather, sports scores, alerts, etc. but now, where is the closest location that they can find biodiesal to operate their car. The data itself comes from NearBio. To access the service using 4INF0:

+ First, send a message to 4INFO (44636)

+ Next, send the query: “nbio” + Zip Code OR City, State where you want to find the biodiesal

+ That’s it, in a matter of seconds a text message is returned with the info.

+ Btw, entering the same data (nbio + location) into the WAP interface of 4INFO will also provide the info.

+ Finally, NearBio also offers a number of tools to get info on a mobile phone along with a clickable map (regular web) that also offers the data. Entering GPS coordinates also works with the NearBio web site.
