Poll; Do you still use the yellow pages ?
The shop I've worked in for 15+ years is changing hands. I still will have a job when we reopen after a few weeks of remodeling but we will have a new phone number. Talking with a friend I mentioned the high price of a small ad in the yellow pages and he said people don't even use the yellow pages anymore if they have computer access. I have to admit that I access biz phone numbers online routinely and cannot remember when I used the phone book. How about y'all ?
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

Thanked: 1371I use the yellow pages.
They are extremely useful for testing bullets; they've helped me tweak my alloys a lot.
I couldn't tell you the last time I used them to find a phone number though... It's been at least a few years.

I can't believe that they still waste trees making it. Internet rules and is quicker (well...until you don't have service anymore)

I'm with just about everyone else so far. If I need to find a phone number, I just look online...
