This is the coolest (or at least one of the coolest) things! I just found a page that shows you how to do a reverse phone lookup (if you have someone’s phone number, you can search for the owner) on Google Maps! I suppose this can sound kind of scary but all the information is listed already, just newer technology and the internet has made it easier to search for the information.
Anyways, if you have a phone number (I find it easier if you also have the city also) you can search for it on maps.google.com and you’ll find the business/individual and their location! Just make sure you put spaces where dashes would normally be in a phone number (and a comma-space and the city if you have it) and ta-da!
Let me know if you find this particularly useful and if you have other nifty ways you use Google Maps!


ha thats cool! i looked up some of my old houses that i used to live in and now i can “know” who lives in there now..creepy >_<
also on select streets using google maps you can literally wlak down the street going house to house. its pretty weird but way cool. keep in mind that its only on select streets.
Yeah, I noticed that there isn’t many streets in utica/rome where you can do that but I think Syracuse is on there.
