Google Click to Call

Having recently learned about JAJAH, I was intrigued when I saw the subtle “call” link on Google
(click to enlarge)

When you click on “call”, you get this pop up …

which then gives you call status as you are calling …

I have only seen it on google.com (not google.ca) and only for US businesses, but I can enter my Canadian phone number, so this is a free way for Canadians to call US businesses!

Pretty cool feature, but you can imagine the potential abuse of entering someone’s phone number you don’t like and having Google call them over and over again. Will be interesting to see how Google solves that issue!
