Free Telephone Information Service

Would you like a phone number worth putting in your cell phone, or your home phone speed dial to use information services (411) at no cost?  If so, 1-800-goog411 (1-800-466-4411) is an awesome service from Google, and it's free -- great when you are driving on the road with no pen, pencil or paper handy. 

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 Tax Collector’s Office and I don't know the number. I hit the speed dial for Google information that I have programmed.

The voice at the other end says, "say the business and the City & State." I say, “Palm Beach County Tax Collector, West Palm Beach, Florida”.  He says, "Palm Beach County Tax Collector, West Palm Beach, Florida – would you like a list?"   I say, “Yes” and select the office on North Olive Avenue.   He says, "Connecting" and I am connected with the Tax Collector’s office.  This is nationwide and is absolutely free!  Click on the following link and watch the short clip for a quick demonstration (www.google.com/goog411).
