The best part of GOOG411 was that they would connect you to the phone number, free of charge, across borders.

List a business with a Google voice number and you can call in, check messages, and _dial out_ from Google voice. Free international calls!

I was in school in Canada where we had a payphone in a hallway. People heard me randomly saying "Funny Business Name, City State ... Connect me" into the phone so much, it became a running joke.

When I eventually got my own phone, I transferred the number and I still have it.
