MSN Local.Live.com

Is this a cool idea? check out local.live.com and you can search for local listings for coffeeshops, offices and they are provided with phone numbers, and you can call for free from that link, once you provide your phone number, you get a phone call (incoming charges you have to pay)?and they will connect you to that coffee shop or office. The best part is site is open to public (beta)?and anyone can misuse by giving wrong phone numbers, in this world of spam, is this what microsoft could do the best? what happened to the idea team? I dont have any clue what they were thinking to achieve, even if there is something, it is not appropriate to go live without security features and authentication on phone numbers or not even a sign up. I have to logout.alive
Makku: What?you learn from this? If you get a call from unknown id and then you hear “connecting” and if it connects to local coffee shop/book store beware that somebody is playing with your cell phone and what you can do about it..nothing, talk to microsoft.
