Default 411's Replacement

The google text message. Simply send a text message to GOOGL (46645) and in the body of the text message write the business name then a comma (,) and either a city and state or zip code and you will receive one or two text messages back with the address and phone number of the place. 411 calls cost alot of money, this way either charges you 10 cents a text message or just deducts from your available text messages. there are no extra charges.

another cool thing about it is when you get the response text message back to your phone with the answer simply press send on your phone and it will give you the option to call the number on the text message so instead of remembering it, just press send and select the appropriate number, then press send again and you are calling the place.

also to save the number, simply press the button that corresponds to "option" while in the message and select "save to contacts" and the phone number can easily be saved to your contact list.
