Google is now in the business of offering information via your phone through a new service called GOOG-411.
You don't need a computer, an Internet connection, or even the keypad on your phone or mobile device. GOOG-411 is voice-activated, so you can access it from any phone (mobile or land line), in any location, at any time. For free.
Dial (1-800) GOOG-411. Say where. Say what you're looking for. GOOG-411 will connect you with the business you choose.
If you are calling from a mobile device, GOOG-411 can even send you a text message with more details and a map. Simply say "Text message" or "Map it."
Google is clearly looking to expand awareness of its information and mapping technologies and continue to try and replace yellow pages type tools. Here's a video from Google about the service.
