Goog411 makes your cell phone 5 times more useful
Over the last few months, I have found myself using voice based applications more and more. I hate entering text through my cell phone keypad, so voice applications suit me better. Plus, they are easier to use while driving. The service I have used the most is Goog411 (1-800-466-4411). It’s basically a voice interface to Google Maps.
One of the developers wrote a post talking about how Goog411 started. Interesting read.
When it comes to free directory assistance, you have LOTS of choices. They differ in some important ways, so try them all out and see which one(s) you prefer. You may want to try them all every so often just to see what’s new! Grin!
I prefer the ones that have operators to help when the automation doesn’t recognize me and that also don’t restrict me to only business searches – sometimes I need to find people, too!
