PLEASANT HILL, Calif., Jan. 14, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- A California startup company "Look Up Web For Me, Inc." introduced a new service "Look Up Web For Me" on Jan 7th, 2008. The company maintains that they are still in an experimental stage and service is free to the consumer.
The Look Up Web For Me service helps people on the go in need of information from the web. A consumer can call 866-WEB-4111 and get connected to a live agent. The agent looks up the web and gives information right over the phone.
"We are very excited to bring this much needed service to the public," said Altaf Boghani, Look Up Web For Me CEO. "Public dependence on information from the web has grown rapidly in recent years but access to the web, for most of the people, is still limited to their home or the office. People on the go are calling friends and family to look up information on the web for them. This service helps people in an urgent need of information from the web when they are away from home or office. What 411 did for the telephone directories, we intend to do the same for the web."
The company discovered in the primary research that people on the road call friends and family for a range of practical information from the web. The most frequent categories were directions, store hours and locations, train & bus times, traffic jams, weather, address confirmation, hotels, flight information, phone info from an organization's web page, and doctor's number from a HMO website.
The company claims that this service will remain Free during the experimental phase. The service is available from 6 AM PST to 6PM PST Monday through Friday by calling 866-web-4111. The Company plans to expand the service hours with new funding and expansion of the infrastructure. Currently this service is available within the U.S. only.
