Microsoft 411

18 10 2007

From here

On the heels of Google’s free 411 service, Microsoft has rolled out.. wait for it… Live Search 411 (you knew they were going to find a way to work “Live” into it somehow!) The free phone service, accessible by dialing 1-800-CALL-411 (1-800-255-5411) allows users to get business information, movie show times, and weather forecasts. Once a business is found, the service will automatically connect to their phone line. Mobile phone users with compatible hardware and data plans can also get driving and travel maps and directions.

And Live Search 411 😀

Cool 🙂

I wouldn’t even bother to recommend *spire to any of my friends !
