Orange UK launches «Find Nearest»

Orange UK has announced it has launched a "Find Nearest" service, which allows customers to use SMS messages to locate restaurants, businesses, taxis, or themselves if lost - according to DMeurope.

"Subscribers send a one-word request via SMS to the Orange short code 300, e.g., 'PUB', and the service returns the name of the nearest pub.

The Orange "Find Nearest" service also offers the subscribers the ability to locate themselves if lost. Upon texting 'ME' to 300, the service texts back the user's location".
