    Yes, but first you would need to know that: 411 = “I can’t find a specific community because it doesn’t have a logical name, so can you help me out.” Ironically, the name 411 embodies the problem perfectly.

      It’s riffing off a canadian telephone directory. Agreed, not a universally useful name…

        Really? I had to look it up, and I found out that it was shut down in late 80s.

        So that’s good to know next time I happen to be speaking with someone who is both old enough and from a particular part of the world.
