In Krasnoyarsk, a telephone reference closed 2999999

After 29 years of work, a telephone reference was closed in Krasnoyarsk 2999999. This is reported by the founder of the reference service Oleg Kotsar.

The telephone reference 2999999 began its work in 1996, responding to the calls of Krasnoyarstsev by phone number 009 and helping them find the necessary goods and services in the city. A little later I saw the light site 2999999.ru. The Internet resource worked in the format of the marketplace, with its help, network users could independently look for the information they need, and sellers to demonstrate their goods and services.

“They worked for a long time and fruitfully. But Internet technologies, the ability to receive reference information promptly from your smartphone, all this shifted our main channels. Although a telephone statement, in my opinion, can now be useful to many. For example, people with poor vision and in traffic jams, when a person cannot be distracted from the road and look at the screen for a long time. Nevertheless, they began to call us much less often, the project simply ceased to be profitable, ”Oleg Kotsar explained Newslab.

The founder of the reference service noted that until the last he fought for the project. To issue certificates, experts even tried to introduce artificial intelligence, but this required a team of too large resources.

Now calls by number 2999999 are not accepted, the site also does not function.
