You may have heard of this service before but a new feature was just brought to my attention and I thought it was worth sharing!
1-800-Free-411 provides directory assistance to mobile and landline callers. They can even send turn-by-turn directions via text to your mobile phone to help you get where you are going! If you don’t have a GPS or a similar service on your cell phone, this could really come in handy while you are out and about looking for that elusive toy on your child’s Christmas list this holiday season! Best of all, it’s completely free…and we all love free 🙂
Just wanted you to know I love your blog. So much good info here. BTW I tried to do that review my blog thingy … filled in the form and nothin happened after i submitted.
To let you know, this service has advertisements that some may find annoying(ads are 10 seconds long!). For an ad-free Directory Service, dial 1-800-GOOG-411. This is powered by Google and is completely free, I posted about this free service on my website here: http://site4teachers.blogspot.com/2008/10/free-directory-assistance.html
I’ve used GOOG411 before but they only offer business listings and they do not offer the directions feature. Therefore I use 1-800-FREE411 because of those other added features (not to say GOOG411 is a bad service). I sometimes like the advertisements anyways because they relate to my call!
Thanks! I linked ya!

Another free service is 1-800-THE-INFO. (1-800-843-4636). They have Free Directory Assistance too, have operator back up when needed and offer the option of getting your listing sent via text. Good stuff!
