Title: AnyWho
Description: "AT&T's AnyWho directory functions as a single telephone listing so that the user does not have to search across multiple directories. Furthering the quick and easy search, AT&T claims that their directory is one of the fastest available, with web pages designed for dial-up use. Despite these claims, the interface is quite cluttered with options and services/advertising that reviewers found annoying. Another frustration is that unless your search yields less than 10 results, you cannot tell exactly how many listings you have until you come to the bottom of the last page of results. However, AT&T's AnyWho is still a comprehensive method for quickly locating listed telephone directory information. The reverse directory is useful and AT&T has also partnered with MapQuest (reviewed 1999) to easily allow users to retrieve a map and driving directions for the address information supplied in any given listing"--"Best Free Reference Web Sites 2000," RUSA Quarterly, Fall 2000; reviewed Mar. 1, 2000.
