This is how old business models die

Would you like free long distance directory assistance from a cell or land phone? Of course you would.

Just dial 1-800-goog411. a.k.a. 1-800-466-4411

It’s a new free service from Google. It asks you in sequence for the city, province, business name, multiple locations if applicable and if you want to connect. It works. I tried it.

Thanks to PEI’s best dobro guitarist Guy Cormier who sent me this. The sweetest sound this side of Nashville. Someday if you’re real lucky you can play with him, usually at a bluegrass jam. Or just sit there and listen to that sweet guitar.
