Sure, you can always just google "15.2 feet in inches," but really, where's the finesse in that? Where's the excitement -- the feeling of turning a knob, cranking a machine, and getting something done?
In other words, if you're seriously bored and feel like using a more tricked out tool for your conversions you could do worse than this little Conversion Tool. The strangest tidbit about this tool is that it is hosted under a real estate marketing website. From what I gather, they cater to Americans who wish to buy property in France (hence the need for unit conversion).
The tool itself looks quite slick, and as far as I can tell (after rummaging through the source code), it does not seem to use Flash at all. It offers conversions between a fairly limited set of measurement units - you get just six weight units, two temperature units, and six length/distance units. It's fairly basic, but it's an interesting design nonetheless.
