on 1/15/2009 For us Canadians we have this new service called ASK411.

After watching a movie in Alberta, I got a chance to view this ad regarding ASK411 texting service. Their just starting up the service which is free until January 31st afterwards they will just charge you I think of 50 cents per text.

It’s easy I tried it on residential listing of my relatives in Vancouver, and they provide accurate results. All you have to remember is to type 275411 as the number to send, and then text the City and province, then the name of the person, establishment or government listing.

I want to share this so that people could save money also like me from using regular 411 which cost a lot.

on 7/14/2008 Don't forget about 1-800-FREE411, which is actually the leader in the free d.a. field, in terms of number of users. We're that successful because we have business, gov't, and residential listings, Skype compatibility, and now we can text driving directions to your cell phone immediately following a call.

Cheers,
Jay
