Google Search Engine - Perform Currency Conversion Queries

SUMMARY: Convert between different monetary systems such as the dollar, euro, pound, and yen with Google.

Traveling to Canada and need to know how much $100 US equals in Canadian dollars (minus any exchange fees)? Need a good estimate on how many yen equal $25 US? Or are you currently in Europe and need to convert 75 euros to British pounds?

Google comes built-in with a currency converter, currently (as of 6/28/2006) provided by Citibank N.A. but subject to change. While the rates may not be exact, they can provide a good estimate.

To query Google for the exchange rate, perform the following types of searches:

100 us dollars in canadian dollars
25 us dollars in yen
75 euros in british pounds
