MAPQUEST - ACCESS TO YOUR HOME!
Google has implemented a new feature wherein you can type someone's telephone number into the search bar and hit enter and then you will be given a map to their house. Everyone should be aware of this!
Note that you can have your phone number removed or blocked. Before forwarding this, I tested it by typing a friend's telephone number in google.com. Their phone number came up, and when I clicked on the MapQuest link, it actually mapped out where they live.
Please look up your own number and try it.
In order to test whether your phone number is mapped:
~ Go to: http://www.google.com

In order to test whether your phone number is mapped:
~ Go to: http://www.google.com
~ Type your phone number in the search bar (i.e. 555-555-1212) and hit enter.
~ If you want to BLOCK Google from divulging your private information, simply click
on the telephone icon next to your phone number, or the word telephone above
the phone number.
~ Removal takes 48-hours.
~ If you are unlisted in the phone book or have a cell phone you might not be in there,
(my home number was NOT) but it is a good idea to check anyway. If your number
does come up and you click on "map," it will show you a direct map to your house...
