Following to stay updated on this project. The phone geek in me is cartwheeling in excitement!
I propose we try and reconnect with each other, on a real human to human level. How cool would it be if you could receive a call from a fellow netizen that liked your website, and wanted to let you know directly? Or calling into a weekly party line with other people, and just shooting the breeze? All with an anonymous telephone number that doesn't tie back to your identity. Bring back the phone line! 909-500-2035

Modern times have trained most of us to be anxious of phone calls. Just getting one from a friend rather than a text might have you sitting there going "Oh god, what happened?", dreading the worst. Maybe they make you nervous because you're thinking "what do I say?" or "what if they don't want to talk right now?"

Telephones made the world smaller and brought people closer together, and I feel that a lot of new technology has been doing the opposite, pulling us all away from each other. We're as interconnected as ever, but somehow, a lot of us feel more lonely than we ever did before.

Tbh i would hate someone calling me to talk about my website and engage me in a conversation. Maybe bring back the answering machine lol. I appreciate your project though good luck!
@humantooth that's the best part! It's entirely configurable, so if you don't want to receive calls directly, you can just have a dedicated voicemail box, with the option to place calls at your own discretion!
