Looking for someone?

There are literally DOZENS of places that you can go to on the Web when you're trying to track someone down. You give them a little data and they'll search through terabytes of data and tell you where someone lives. All very nice and tidy if that's what you're looking for, but WhitePages.com just released a new tool that makes looking for someone a little more fun. Instead of looking for anyone in particular, this site will tell you where they're most likely to be.

Searching for a friend named Robert Jones - your best bet is in California, Texas, Florida or Pennsylvania. Those states have more than 500 listings for Robert Jones in the WhitePages.com directory. Looking for (someone named) Paradise - take a trip to New York or Florida. The main WhitePages.com site has a lot of useful tools when you really want to find someone, but this one is just fun to play with.
