Free People Searching Utilities?

nasteric asks: "I travel a lot for my job and I meet quite a few people when I go out for **beverages** It might be at a club in Spain, a pub in Ireland or at a Manhattan bar. Unfortunately, I don't bring my PDA to many of these places so I have to resort to getting email addresses/phone numbers on napkins or old receipts. I usually end up losing these napkins/receipts during the course of the night/morning and when I try to get in touch with them I usually don't remember their email address or phone number. Lately, I've been using some free online utilities to look up phone numbers/email addresses but I know there have to be better resources. As a result, I am turning to the Slashdot community for help. Does anybody know of any FREE online resources for locating email addresses/phone numbers, assuming you have the persons name and city/country of residence? Any online utility will suffice, whether it be a telephone companies website or a sited designed specifically to be an online directory." For phone numbers, about the best resource I have found is The Ultimates is a site that seems to do it all. What other similar sites have you found?

Ask Slashdot: I'm an alcoholic who can't figure out how to work my PDA when being given someone's fake number at the seedy bar down the street. Can someone help me? Anyone?

Seriously --- bro, if you're so drunk that you can't hang on to a coaster or napkin until you get home, you might be in for a nasty shock if you did manage to arrange a daytime meeting with the "babe" you were talking to the night before.

Google.

Umm... the best people finding utility I know of is google, try hiding from google.

It's a survival mechanism.
