New Search Tool - www.freeality.com
By Alice Snell

It’s rare that we come across new sites that are worth mentioning, but when I saw Freeality www.Freeality.com I thought it should be shared with Tiburon Tips members.

Freeality, an award winning site that came live in 2002, is dedicated to simplify your ability to search for all kinds of information on the Internet. Very simply it is a well organized directory of search sites dedicated to searching for many different types of information.

The one search tool that would be of particular interest to recruiters is the Reverse Look-up Tool. For those not familiar with Reverse Look-up, it allows you to enter a phone number or email address to come up with the name or address of the individual. If the individual has registered their phone number or email address with any directory services, their contact information will be provided.

In addition to the Reverse Look-up tool, Freeality has links to many other types of searches. One of my favorites is the Research and Reference section. Included in this section are links to:

* Dictionaries – Traditional dictionaries, Medical, Rhyming, Acronyms, Legal, Slang and more

* Quotation Resources – Famous Individuals, Poetry, even one dedicated to Mark Twain

* Reference Libraries – Library of Congress, New York Public Library, Presidential Library

* Maps and Directions – Rand McNally, Mapquest, National Geographic, Rare Maps

Additionally there are links to Homework Helper sites (always useful for those of us that never learned the “new math”), cooking sites, travel sites, film sites, medical reference and many more.

Whether you visit Freeality references to support your recruiting efforts or simply for links to sites of personal interest, Freeality is a “search saver” that I think you’ll want at the top of your bookmark list.
