People and Business Search Sites

These sites can help you find a person, a company, an address, a telephone number, an email address, or a map to a street address.

You can do a postal code lookup at Canada Post.

Enter the name of a business or person and you will receive the appropriate addresses and telephone numbers at Canada411.

You can locate addresses and telephone numbers, do reverse telephone lookups and reverse address lookups at Infospace. Note: some Infospace services are fee-based.

Do an advanced search tailored to finding e-mail addresses at Yahoo Canada. Your search can be refined by additional search parameters such as where you went to high school with the person.

Find a business in the yellow pages.

Canadian street maps with directions from starting point to destination are available online at MyTelus.com. American street maps with directions from starting point to destination are available online at Mapquest.

Software accessories

We use file compression software to reduce the size of some of our smaller download kits (ones that do not need a dedicated installer). We use Corel’s fine WinZip software. If you prefer, a free compress-uncompress utility for Windows, compatible with other “zip” tools, is 7-Zip.

If you do a lot of searching on the Internet, you should try an excellent Canadian product, Copernic. You can save searches, repeat those searches, and do a great deal more with Copernic Agent.

For fast Internet browsing and really fast Internet downloads, you should try a very popular, free web browser: FireFox.

Want a software office suite for Windows with word-processing, spreadsheet, presentations, and database cababilities but can’t justify the cost? Try OpenOffice.org — it is compatible with the all other major office suites, can open and save files in the same formats, and is free!
