Best online people/address search thingie - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Walking Shadow · 07-02-2007, 08:56 AM

I'm looking to get back in touch with a few people that I've well, fallen out of touch with. Their old addresses and phone numbers are out of date/disconnected etc. Anyone have any recommendations for a good online people/address search/finder type of thing. If it's a pay site that's cool, as long as it isn't too pricy.

Thanks, and hey, don't you, go changin'.

google is kinda pervy when it comes to indexing people, that would be my first jumping off point.

There are many "people finders" that also basically tap into the same databases out there. You just pay a fee and don't pay if you don't get anything.

Two other suggestions: one, see if your old high school has anythnig with the reunion crowd. Second, try Classmates.com. You can e-mail people for a fee but you don't have to pay and join until you look things over.

Facebook, classmates, myspace are always the first options.

I've found zabasearch.com to be the most reliable. Although, it doesn't always give you the most recent address and phone number, rather the most recent they used on the internet. But its been useful for me so far.

I used zaba very effectively 2 years ago tracing down former classmates for a high shcool reunion. Helps to know the state they are residing in, though. Really tough to find females as their last name may have changed.

good luck

zabasearch.com, dexonline.com, whitepages.com.
I use them for work quite often.

They pretty much all tie into pay sites, as thingstodo said.

I think you can get a 24-hr pass for like $25, if it's that important.

These two sites have been extremely helpful to me. They also work for finding females as they display previous names in the listing. The 2nd site also shows possible relatives and roommates.
