What web app can I use to look up phone numbers?

Asked by burner911 (65points) March 4th, 2008

I want one that tells me where the number is registered and pinpoints its exact location using the Google Map app.

here… Fun Fact: in Australia being able to search phone numbers and trace any caller info without knowing their names and a location first breaches the Telecommunications legislation in place.

“I know my friends phone number but need their address. Can I do this?
No, this would be contrary to the Telecommunications Act (‘The Act’). The only way you can search whitepages.com.au is by entering a surname and any address information you have.”-whitepages.com.au

Seems in America you can search however you want… (!)

Launchrz.com lists this webapp, but it is a for-pay service. I don’t see anything else that sounds appropriate.

whocalled.us is more for tracking telemarketers and other unknown (or blocked) caller ID numbers, but regardless is very handy.

@bluemukaki That web app really works! It just wont show name because I need to pay. Do you know any free ones?
