Never Waste Money by calling 411 Again !

I just had to share a great a great new service that blows the "411" info service OUT OF THE WATER!  My friend recently introduced me to a service by GOOGLE to replace 411. The best part it's simple to use and its FREE.

Simply send a text message to GOOGLE at 858-558-0244.  Type in the name of the business or person you are looking for, plus the city and state.  Within several seconds, you will receive a text message back with the Name of the business, phone number and the address.

 Hope this helps you all.  Let me know what you think.

 Regards,

 Todd Armstrong

San Diego Plans for a population Boom


With 1 million people expected to call San Diego, Calif., home over the next two decades, local county officials believe developers need to plan early so that enough housing is available to accommodate demand.

Tony Pauker, Urban Land Institute of San Diego/Tijuana chairman, says multifamily, high-density infill construction will account for many of these new units; single-family homes will make up only 30 percent of dwellings built this year.

"Within a decade, new single-family home developments will be the rare exception as we adopt development models more judicious of our precious land resources," Pauker says. County planners say developers should focus their efforts on erecting affordable housing near jobs and public transit.

"Well-planned compact growth can help provide more housing, while saving the region from the urban sprawl that has overrun and gridlocked other major metro areas," says Garry Bonelli of the San Diego Association of Governments.
