"Here is a example Dot Tel domain, mainly for mobile usage, and providing the QR-Code of the domain, as well:
Example Domain: http://rolexwatch.tel
It has the following categories:

Non-Mobile content
QR-Code

The .tel Roadmap has announced also the following features / enhancements:
--> (Support for) image-based adverts.
--> (More) diverse template(s) (options).
--> Easy "call me for free" button on .tel pages for VoIP service integration.
--> Easier navigation (of folders)?
--> Much simplified model for private data sharing.
About the Yellow Pages categories, you mentioned:
Saving Searches,
Saving Businesses and People to Contacts,
Email listings to other people:
If you collect Info with your smart phone, by scanning QR-Codes:
You can scan web data/info from screens and printed matters, and then bookmark the data/info on your phone:
---> Website URL's
---> Phone numbers
---> Email addresses
---> Text messages
---> Google Maps Location
---> Social Media links
---> YouTube Videos
---> SMS and email messages
The contact info, you then could move to your phone address book (not the Dot Tel SuperBook address book, but only Superbook, if it is contact information, keywords and location maps from .Tel domains only).
Conclusion:
The bookmarking of QR-code data, and then moving the decoded data to Dot Tel domain folders, or to the smart phone address book, all on a mobile phone, is similar to the saving and listing options, you mention, that one has, when using the Yellolw Pages saving searches and contact information.
Which is why I strongly recommend to install a QR reader applicaton on your mobile phone (that has a inbuilt camera). Than you can scan offline mobile web data, to bring it online, and then to save/store and list, within your lists of searches and contact information, etc.
Furthermore:
You don't need to put any website URL's into your mobile or PC browser, because by scanning such info, it is already on your mobile phone (about the same, as if you would click on a link on Yello Pages online), and be viewed by one click (after the phone App has decoded the scanned info).
This proceeding, is at least as easy and as fast, as the saving features you can use from the Yellow Pages. It is also more interesting, because the offline data you snap with your phone, is more likely to be up to date, and the latest info.
If you like to search and save information and contact information, then it is a lot more interesting, fun and interactive, to scan, (bookmark,) read, and store/save QR-Code data.
And remember: The data will be on your mobile phone.
I guess, one is able to transfer the data from mobile phone to desktop PC, or laptop.
Final conclusion:
By working on your mobile phone (or mobile device), you have a lot more opportunities and options for saving searches and businesses and privat peoples contact information. Interactivety by using QR-Codes (scanning them, creating them, distributing them, displaying them, etc.), is the better and more efficient way, to work with, to save and list info / data.

Wikiworldbook has an email address book, or similar.

By the way, here is a follow up about the "sub-domain name string shortening issue":
How to avoid long sub-domain name strings within Dot Tel domains:
On the control panel, within the folders section:
Create the sub-domain only under the main domain, and not under a existing sub-domain. Then move the sub-domain to its destination folder, by going to "Contact Information", drop down menu "Choose an action", "Copy/Move", "Move to...", "Move items to another folder", "Choose where you would like to move these items to:", then select the destination folder witin the drop down menu, and "Save".
The sub-domain will be moved to its place.
This is the manually proceeding, instead of having sub-sub-domains, and sub-sub-sub-domains, and therefor long sub-domain name strings (in the browser).
The shorter sub-domain names, also look better, and are easier for using, and for googling, etc."
