Just leave it up to Google to come up with something like this!!! Here's a
number worth putting in your cell phone, or your home phone speed
dial: 1-800-goog411 or 1-800-466-4411. This is an awesome service from
Google, and it's free -- great when you are on the road. Don't waste your
money on information calls and don't waste your time manually dialing the
number. I am driving along in my car and I need to call the golf course and
I don't know the number. I hit the speed dial for information that I have
programmed (1-800-goog411). The voice at the other end says, "Say the name
of the business and the City & State." I say, "Firewheel Golf Course,
Garland , Texas .' He says, "Connecting," and Firewheel answers the phone.
Or you can get a list by category..."sporting goods", and it will tell you
all of them and then you can choose one and it will connect you!!
How great is that? This is nationwide and it is absolutely free! Works on
cell and landline phones.


Click on the link below and watch the short clip for a quick demonstration.

1-800-GOOG-411: Find and connect with local businesses for free from your phone.

Thanks for the info. I will be using it. :)

Awesome, I'll give it a try too. I don't dial my cell provider's 411, it costs a dollar a whack.

**Edit**
I just tried it, it works folks. I did a check on it, seems it's been out for 2 years now. Where the heck have I been?

This works great. It is especially nice if you're traveling and need to find a tow truck or other unexpected service.

1-800-FREE-411 (1-800-373-3411) also works just the same as 411 and is free.

I knew about the 800-free-411 but they make listen to ads.
Is this for residential listings as well or only business listings.

I'll try it myself, Thanks.
