My compliments to Google!



Here's a number worth putting in your cell phone, or your home phone

speed dial: 1-800-goog411. 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.



The voice at the other end says, "City & State." I say,

" Garland , Texas ." He says, "Business, Name or Type of
Service." I say, Firewheel Golf Course." He says,
"Connecting" and Firewheel answers the phone. How great is that?
This is nationwide and it is absolutely free!



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

demonstration.

We use 1-800-free411 to avoid the egregious charges our cell phone and
home phone providers charge nowadays.

The service makes you listen to short commercial announcements, and you
do have to dial the number you get from them yourself.

But, it will find you business and non-business numbers, while it
appears from their web page description that the Google service will
only give you local business numbers.
