White & Yellow Page Apps For Your Phone

A telephone technological evolution is underway. Consumers have been frantically ditching their landline phones. Telecom providers have been ditching print telephone books. 411 services are being discontinued left and right. As such, it may be time to start looking for a cell phone app which may help you find phone numbers and addresses while you are on the move.

With the onset of “smart phones” there came the ability to customize them with “apps”, to quote Apple, “There’s an app for that™”. WhitePages.com is now offering a mobile app (here) for looking up residential phone numbers and address and YP.com is now offering a mobile app (here) to find business phone numbers and addresses. Both apps are being offered for free with the hope that consumers will tolerate ads in exchange for the ability to  lookup phone numbers/addresses wherever they are.

There are many circumstances in our everyday lives where having the white or yellow pages at your finger tips could be useful. So if you are someone who frequently searches for people or business online you might consider adding these to your smart phone.
