A dark age for yellow pages - DSCN2890

In our building, yellow pages directories were delivered a month ago but most are left uncollected. As people increasingly Google their way to businesses and price information, perhaps there will be a day when we won't need to sacrifice tons of paper to distribute out-of-date information.

To take full advantage of Flickr, you should use a JavaScript-enabled browser and
install the latest version of the Macromedia Flash Player.

Just discovered yellowikis.org earlier in the week. Coupled with maps, it has the potential to disrupt yellow pages data owners already pushing their content on the web. Go add your business now.
