Who's up for last minute plans?
Ladybug:
Do you not have services (online or via SMS/phone) where you can find someone's name and adress based on their phone number or cell phone number? I'm genuinely curious, because to me, this is a given, but once when I was called up by someone in the UK, and wanted to find out who it was, some Brit I talked to said that he didn't think such a thing existed.

Of course we have mobile tracking services in the UK - but the consent of the tracked mobile owner is required before you can do it. The services are aimed at parents and companies. Getting their name and address is another matter.

Actually, I was just gonna call her up and ask exactly where she was. I guess tracing works too. MIDNIGHT! I gotta get up tomorrow! night folks.
Ladybug:
That's not what I meant - I meant like a "phone book" (online or via sms/phone) where you can also do "reversed" searches, pretty much. Someone you don't know calls you, you want to know who it is, you look up the number? He claimed it wasn't possible - that you'd have to know the name to find any info.. Which seems weird to me, but maybe not? I don't know.
Here, if you buy a cell phone, the number will be searchable (at www.telefonkatalogen.no) unless you ask specifically for it not to be. I guess I just assumed that would be standard practice most places.
So.. I'm not talking tracking as in finding out where they are atm, but tracking someone down as in finding out who they are/where they live.

Well we found each other without it, so it was all ok :-) I have pictures but I'm too lazy to put them up just yet.
