I think we've got enough people that have emailed me interested that this problem is going to be solved soon.

Here's the first go at the number: (415) 329-5992

It's just using the basic Twilio text to speech, but I'll get a proper recording in there so it's easier to understand shortly. Website should be up in a day or so. Any feedback is appreciated.

If anyone wants to pitch in with some ideas on how to provide a better service or wants to hack together, let me know!

So far, I'm planning to put up numbers for major metro areas, and possibly allow for personal numbers that will either transcribe and email messages to the owner or go some sort of SMS route.

Also, if anyone has a contact at nad.org, please let them know.

DISCLAIMER: this is for good karma only, any ideas for this other than not for profit will be turned down :)

Wow. My hat off to you, sir. :)

Terrific! Kudos to Twilio for being so reponsive. Guys just make certain that both the original blog author and the folks at nad.org know about it to give the pubicity it deserves to their members.

Challenge accepted, email sent.
