Low Tech Lost Cell Phone Locator
You have misplaced your cell phone somewhere in your home or maybe your car. If only you had another phone to call it and locate it by its ring. In steps, Where’s my cell phone .com to the rescue.
Simply enter your cell number and it will ring your phone until you find it. Its a free service and the site claims it does not store any numbers. You have the option to remove your number once you find and answer your phone. After doing this you will not be able to use the service again.
Hopefully your battery is not dead or you have your ringer cut off. If it has been stolen you are only going to annoy the thief who stole it. The service is nothing high tech like location based services, but a simple low tech way to find your missing phone.
