Microsoft testing yellow pages callback

To be filed under Microsoft is catching on. The Windows Live platform starts providing a click-to-call feature, dubbed Windows Live Call for Free.

The service only works for US resident members. Users select the company they want to reach, enter their private phone number and then wait for their phone to ring back.

No reference to VoIP has been made, so it may be just a basic callback system. But should prevent phone spammers to bug after your call and prepare what we call the Yellow Pages 2.0. For the curious, LiveSide has screenshots.
