Another site for your Phone Numbers section.

[vk4akp]

I came across another neat site you might want to add to your FAQ- Phone Numbers page.

I tried the link at the bottom of the page but it's broken, takes you to the old forum and you can't post. So hopefully you will find the information here.

It's Telephreak.org

They have a conference server thats quiet good.

*393 75831 Will get you there via FWD.

Dial 2 at the prompt for conference.

They have other numbers also.

I will keep looking for more!

I can't believe no one has started a SIP dating site yet! LOL

Actually I think Pulver over at FWD did do just that, while FWD itself seems to have totally stagnated.

OK.. It's amazing with all this new VOIP technology, there really isn't that much going on in the way of free services running on the net.

I remember in the hayday of comuters people went wild running BBS's and all sorts of things.

Phone dating service software exists. It's used everywhere.

Just add Asterisk to the mix and away you go.

It's like chat conference servers. So far I have only found 3 world wide. Amazing.

I believe these things aren't being made accessible enough, or advertised enough.

SipBroker and VoXaLot are a good start. Making Direct dialing much more user friendly. I guess Sip direct dialing was not all that well thought out in it's conception as the sipbroaker idea really should have been intergrated into the SIP design. It's a logical way to do direct dial from a DTMF handset.

People go crazy for things like Skype, and Yahoo / MSN messenger.

SIP is an ever better system . We just have to educate the public more and make the setup procedures simplier.

Anyhow, back to TelePhreak.

I've played around with his site a bit and it's really worth listing in SipBroker's free number list.

The site offer's from it's main menu.

- User conferencing.
- Caller ID read Back.
- Access to listen to all sorts of Police and Rail Road Scanner frequencies.
- Voice Mail
- Echo Test
- WBAI Radio feed NY.
- Media archives.

This is exactly the sort of out of the box thinking that really helps to promote SIP to the hobiest which gets more people involved.

Thumbs up to the guys for setting this up. (Some 4 years ago would you believe!).


Anyhow, back to the fun.
