The 411 - Knoxville Tennessee Information

Posted by KTB in Technology

Google.JPG is uploaded at imgplace.net Google is always coming out with cool gadgets, toys and otherwise useless applications. Occasionally they hit a sweet spot and build something that is fantastically useful. One of their latest labs project is just such an application.

I present to you Google Voice Local Search. Google Voice Local Search is Google’s experimental service to make local-business search accessible over the phone. I have tested it out several times for searches in the Knoxville Area and it works very well.

If you want to try it out simply call 1-800-GOOG-411 (1-800-466-4411) from any phone. The service will list out the name, phone number and address of the business you are interested in finding information about. I tried this for a search for local restaurant’s and then I tried it for a specific restaurant. Both searches worked very well.

Give it a try and make sure to read the cheat sheet before you get started.
