That's awesome! Regular 411 service is ridiculous by how much they charge. It's good to see more free 411 services out there.

google is covering just about all the bases i think-

They learned their lesson well from network TV. Get people to pay for advertising and you can offer your product for free. The interesting thing to watch for is if they can keep on providing quality products for free with their big expansions in services.

Well, I just plugged that number into my cell.

However, Google mentions that, "Regular phone charges may apply, based on your telephone service provider."

Who charges for 800 calls these days anyways?
