New Taylorville, Pana area directory available in mobile application
MATTOON – The 2010-2011 Official Phone Book of Consolidated Communications for the Taylorville and Pana area is now available in print, online and in an easy-to-use mobile format, giving users the ability to search for business listings for their local area while they’re on the go.
The online and mobile directory can be searched by keywords and phrases in addition to the traditional yellow page headings, and both versions also provide maps, driving directions and a link to many advertiser Web sites. To access the online and mobile phone book, go to phonebook.consolidated.com or consolidated.com.
The mobile application is another addition to the book’s handy features, such as the numerical cross reference guide that allows users to look up a phone number instead of the name. The directory also includes easy-to-read white and yellow page listings, and features several pages of Taylorville and Pana community information, city maps and governmental listings.
Brad Barker, Consolidated Directory Services Manager, said Consolidated Communications is excited to offer the mobile application to its users. “The mobile access allows our users to access The Phone Book anywhere and at anytime,” he said. “With so many people using their cell phones to search online, we wanted to provide our customers with a way to find local information.”
In addition to the traditional directory that was recently delivered to area residents, The Phone Book from Consolidated is also available in a mini book format. The mini format is ideal for use in tight places such as vehicles or offices. Area residents can also get a mini book by visiting the Taylorville Communication Center at 216 North Webster Street, the Taylorville Chamber of Commerce or the Pana Chamber of Commerce.
Old directories can be recycled at any of the locations mentioned above as well.
