Sometimes news is just news. And sometimes it is big. This time it is big : Google has launched , the service works fine. I am unable to test it as I live in Europe, where everything over two years behind compared to the US.

e paid 411 market is so dead. I'm betting these free alternatives take at least 50% market share within a couple of years.

This is hot news. Google is expanding in ways nobody probably expected. I am impressed, once again.
