Not Football But Vital If You Have Kids.....

Its works for most numbers, just type the number in google without hyphens.

For all of you with Children

FYI - It does work

Google has implemented a new feature which enables you to type a telephone number into the search bar and hit enter and you will be given the person's name and address. If you then hit Map you will get a map to the person's house. Everyone should be aware of this! It's a nationwide reverse telephone book.

If a child gives out his/her phone number, someone can now look it up to find out where he/she lives. The safety issues are obvious, and alarming!!!

Note that you can have your phone number removed or blocked. I tried my number and it came up along with the mapquest and directions straight to our house. I did fill out the removal form for myself, and encourage all of you to do the same. Quite scary!

Please look up your own number!!!!!!!

In order to test whether your phone number is mapped, go to: Google ( 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 your telephone number and then click on the Removal Form. Removal takes 48-hours.

Check your own number and (although this may not apply to you if you have an unlisted number or cell phone as primary contact).

You may know someone who needs to know this -that would have little kids.

It takes Sex Offenders right to your front door!!

Please share this information with friends and family.

What else is scary, that mapquest can zoom right to your house. However, when I tried, it pointed to the wrong house. Also, you can remove you phone number if you wish. Nothing like invasion of privacy.

Oh .. not so scary.

Call 411. Tell them a name. Tell them to give you the address. Tell them to text your cell phone directions to that address.

Before text messaging, you just needed MAPSCO. They would give you the map coordinates.

Nothing has changed.
