Here's an idea The Icon is pursuing and it's time is now.
In the past month three persons, separately from each other, approached The Icon with a very interesting idea.
It is: Could The Icon create an online listing (e.i. phone book) for persons who have cell phones? We've actually played around with this idea for the past year. The recent inquiries cause us to give this more serious consideration.
We think the idea is fantastic, and we're looking at some formats. Let's take it one step further. We'd also like to provide e-mail addresses.
