Free 4-1-1


This phone number is really free. Don't know about you but I HATE paying like $1.75 for every darn call to 4-1-1 from my cell phone.

Why is it more expensive to call 4-1-1 from your car then it is from your house? I guess it has to do with the "gotcha" factor.

Anyway, this is a great idea - and I tested it out. You call the number it asks you a few questions, and while it pulls up your listing - it reads an ad to you for Mr Ticket or something. After about 10 seconds, it either connects you to your requested number or gives you the number audibly.

I say pretty cool - I have already programmed it into my phone!
