Here is an worth while tidbit for you

Here is something you will want to have and use! Do you still remember when the telephone company charged $1.50 to get a phone number from information? My compliments to Google! Just leave it up to Google to come up with something like this!!! Here's a number worth putting in your cell phone, or your home phone speed dial: 1-800-goog411. (1-800-466-4411)

This is an awesome service from Google, and it's free-- great when you are on the road. 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 a Restaurant, Doctor, Appointment or whatever and I don't know the number. I hit the speed dial for information that I have programmed. The voice at the other end says, "City." I say, " **Garland** , **Texas** ." He says, "Business, Name or Type of Service." I say, Firewheel Golf Course." He says,"Connecting" and Firewheel answers the phone. How great is that?

This is nationwide and it is absolutely free!
