…and it appears that the call center is getting quite a work out:

Philly’s new 3-1-1 information line received 3,576 calls within its first 24 hours of operation - with public-safety questions topping the list of requests.

The new 3-1-1 nonemergency call line formally kicked off just after 10 a.m. on Wednesday.

Any bets on at when we’ll be celebrating the “50 millionth 3-1-1 call?”

Here’s my suggestion for the city’s website: choose the most outrageous call of the day, or a top 10 for the month and put the audio up at phila.gov.  Comedy gold, I tell ya.
