    Yup, it's true. When you type your home phone number into Google, the search results are shocking. Not only does it tell you your address, but it also gives DIRECTIONS to that address.

    What are your thoughts on this?

    Go to Google and try it for yourself.

    Well possibly not in the U.K., but elsewhere maybe. It has worked for me numerous amounts of times.
