Free 411 Vs Fee 411

The power of GOOG compels this random YouTube subscriber…

I came across the Google 411 while searching the Google Labs, which I am sure you’ve heard about.

I work for Verizon Wireless as a 411 Directory Assistance Operator. I know some people who have told me that there’s a chance Google 411 will take us Verizon employees out of a job because it is free. I have used Google 411 and it really is pretty impressive. To use Verizon’s 411, it costs $1.49 each time you call, and Google is doing the exact same thing, plus offering more for absolutely nothing.

I was just wondering what your opinion on Google 411 was, if you’ve ever used it, and if you thought it would be the next most popular 411 out there.

I’ve used Google’s 411 service… and would definitely use it again. Why pay for 411 anymore?

    Google 411 is great, BUT it only has business listings, not residential, so Verizon and others have no fear of being done away with.

    yeah the service works sometimes but we will be needing something that will seach for residential listings as well. 411SAVE do residential listing. The svc is free and they have nice and friendly operators to answer your calls. I love the service. So far i dont have any reason to use other DA service yet. You’ll will love it too James, try to request for your friend or relatives number.
