Google Your Phone Number

April 23, 2007

I understand that Google has a new feature which enables you to type a telephone number into the search bar and hit enter and then you will be given the person’s name and address. You can then get a map to the person’s house via MapQuest. This could definitely be scary, especially if your child gives out their phone number to the wrong person.

Now, I checked out my number and it did not display our names and address. So, I then checked a few family members of mine and all of their information came up just as described above.

If you want to block your information, you can click on your telephone number and then click on the removal form. I understand that it takes 48 hours to remove the information.

Be sure to check this out and let us know if you have any other information or tips. I heard about this via email from a friend of mine.

Buy a New Dress (Tip of the Week)

April 17, 2007

white dress This Spring must be the season of the dress. Catalogs, magazine, online… everywhere I go, I see cute, cute Spring dresses.

Neiman Marcus has a great selection this year, but some are quite pricey. I do love how they categorize their dresses online by designer, silhouette, occasion and trends, making it really easy to search for what you want!

For a variety of dresses across all price points, check out the article “Shopping Shortcut: Spring Dresses,” which features an adorable Marc Jacobs Tiered Gauze Dress for $2,500. If that’s not in your budget, don’t worry, there is also a great cotton strapless dress from Gap for $69.50.

Let us know where you like to shop for dresses. The Elie Tahari from Neiman Marcus pictured to the right gets my vote!
