RIP The Yellow Pages

When was the last time you dug deep into the junk drawer to find the Yellow Pages?

Ours is so firmly jammed in there I think we’ll wait to the inevitable kitchen remodeling to get it out.

With Google and Yahoo! both offering local search - Google adding reviews - is there any future for that big yellow tome?

    The rest of the planet outside of the US still have need of it. Nobody ever remembers the other 6 billion people outside the US :(

    I couldn’t agree more - our yellow pages simply don’t see the light of day anymore. I actually dread getting the new one delivered every year. Just so much more to recycle. To Ross’ comment, fair point. I think we’re both just relating to our own circumstances - in the ‘burbs in the US where i live, there just isn’t much future in old-style yellow pages.
