Do you know your neighbours?


I am sure that most of us know at least the people on either side of them; whether they live in a house or an apartment.

It is rarer to know folks more than 3 houses(or apartments) over.

I found an interesting site of which I have only discovered about 1/20th; It is called the directory journal web directory.

At first I was looking at its collection of abandoned buildings from around the world(a very haunting and interesting collection)

Then I stumbled upon the;

http://www.whoownsthisphonenumber.com/; a  service which supposedly lets one find the owner of any phone number(except it didn’t work for me..lol)

It redirected me to;

the white pages

and the reverse phone number section.

Well, this is where it got scary because I entered our own phone number and H’s name was listed; not so scary so far. But it has a section beside the entry, saying, “find neighbours”…

EVERY house in our street was revelaed with the owner and their phone number, even their occupation(if they so desired)

Maybe you already have this information, but it is weird because everyone else does too….

Anyhow the site Directory Journal is a very interesting site; check it out!

  1. Some of the stuff you can find out on the web is positively scary.

    YES, It feels really voyeuristic sometimes… :(

    I know some of the neighbors. If they’d stop moving in and out, it’d be easier. ;)
    LOL! :)
