This function could use Yellow pages (for US/UK)? or google directory?
Thoughts anyone? I was thinking it would make searching for numbers pretty easy - say typing in pcworld, you could immeiately call the closest one.. It would be pretty handy imo.
But I get what you mean and this would be a handy thing to add - maybe a 'yell.com widget'?
