Morse Code Vs Text Messaging (S685)
From: lubin100 on 2/25/2010 And From: Coolstone.com (in Movies2) |
![]() |
On Oct. 20, 2008, in a test to
see if text messaging or morse
code can send a message the
fastest, The Tonight Show with
Jay Leno has two young guys
and two old guys pair up sending
the same message. Click
on the above source, or 'HERE'
for
my copy, to see who was fastest.
NOTE: the old guy was using a
"bug" (just requires a side
wise tap) rather than pressing
a key. But that's what the
they used "in the old days"
if they were good. A good
operator could carry a line
or so of code in his head before
transmitting.

Subj: The
Bat Phone (S746)
From: ezines@arcamax.com on 4/27/2011
Oklahoma Governor Brad Henry's
first encounter with the
"bat phone" didn't go as planned,
reports The Shawnee Star.
The phone, which is used strictly
for emergencies and
connects the state and the Department
of Homeland Security,
rang unexpectedly one night.
"Suddenly I hear a shrill, loud
noise. It scared me half
to death," Henry says. "And
then I realize the 'bat phone'
is ringing! Now I'm in
a panic because it must be a matter
of national security."
Henry lifted the receiver of
the ominous phone. Was it the
President on the other end?
"It was a telemarketer," said Henry.
[Borrowed from Reader's Digest.]

Subj: Free
411 On Cell Phones (S526c)
From: darrell94590 on 2/15/2007
Cell phone companies are charging
us $1.00 to $1.75 or more
for 411 information calls when
they don't have to. Most of
us do not carry a telephone
directory in our vehicle, which
makes this situation even more
of a problem.
When you need to use the 411
information option, simply dial
1 (800) FREE 411, or 1 (800)
373-3411 without incurring any
charge at all!
Snopes.com verifies this is correct

Don't waste your money on information
calls and don't waste
your time manually dialing the
number. I am driving along
in my car and I need to call
the golf course and I don't
know the number. I hit
the speed dial for information that
I have programmed.
Dial: 1-800-goog411. This
is an awesome service from
Google, and it's free -- great
when you are on the road.
The voice at the other end says,
"City & State." I say,
"Garland, Texas." He says,
"Business, Name or Type of
Service." I say, Firewheel
Golf Course." He says,
"Connecting" and Firewheel answers
the phone. How great
is that? This is nationwide
and it is absolutely free!
You can see a video clip about
this wonderful service at
the above source, or on my web
site by clicking 'HERE'.

The Truth About GOOG411 (S618b)
Posted by Garett Rogers By Juan Perez on 11/11/08 |
Google’s free 411 service (1-800-GOOG-411)
lets you find
and call local businesses, but
the service isn’t exactly
as it seems. On the surface,
it looks pretty straight
forward, but spending lots of
money advertising a service
that has no clear potential
to make money should have seemed
a bit suspicious.
In reality, Google’s 411 service
is about training a powerful
speech-to-text engine that will
one day find itself in things
like video search. The
more sample audio they have (people
looking for businesses), the
more accurate their system will
become. Marissa Mayer did an
interview
with Infoworld in
October where she explains what
GOOG-411 is really all about.

Carlos Perez had with
Marissa Mayer by clicking on

Subj: Cell
Phone Info (S491c)
From: jtgalvan on 6/16/2006
Here is something worth knowing if you have a mobile phone.
Have you ever wondered why phone
companies don't seem interested
in trying to prevent the theft
of mobile phones? If you have
ever lost, or had one stolen,
and if you are on a plan, you
still have to pay the plan approximately
up to 24 months, and
you have to go buy another handset
and enter into another
contract. This is more revenue
for the phone company.
There is a simple way of making
lost or stolen mobiles useless
to thieves and the phone companies
know about it, but keep it
quiet.
To check your mobile phone's
serial number, key in the following
on your phone. star-hash-zero-six-hash
( * # 0 6 # ) and a
fifteen digit code will appear
on the screen. This is unique to
your handset. Write it
down and keep it safe. Should your
mobile phone get stolen, you
can phone your service provider and
give them this code. They
will then be able to block your
handset, so even if the thief
changes the sim card, your phone
will be totally useless.
You probably won't get your phone
back, but at least you know
that whoever stole it can't
use/sell it either.
If everybody did this, there
would be no point in stealing
mobile phones.
Gayle checked this article at
Snopes.com at
http://www.snopes.com/crime/prevent/celltheft.asp
which says it is partially true.
Thanks Gayle for the info.
No charge for directory assistance
Phone companies are charging
us $1.00 or more for 411 -
information calls when they
don't have to.
When you need to use the 411
/ information option, simply dial
1-800-FREE-411 or 1 800 373
3411 without incurring a charge.

Cell Phone For Seniors (S705)
From: tom on 7/19/2010 Drawing from SouthTownStar.com |
This might not mean anything
if you are under 40 or there-
abouts, but back in the day,
we didn’t have the convenience
of push button digital phones.
Oh no – we had those lovely
rotary dial phones, and it took
forever to dial a number,
especially if the phone or your
finger slipped, and you
mis-dialled. Because it
had NO auto-redial – you had to do
it manually. Also there
was NO address book – except the
one you wrote in with your pen.
And NO voicemail or text –
if you missed a call.
In honor of the phones of yesteryear,
here is a phone that
us seniors (or at least us old
enough to remember) can
identify with… Click on

My mother was away all weekend
at a business conference.
During a break, she decided
to call home collect.
My six-year-old brother picked
up the phone and heard
a stranger's voice say, "We
have a Betty on the line.
Will you accept the charges?"
Frantic, he dropped the receiver
and came charging
outside screaming, "Dad!

Subj: The
Secret Homeland Security Hotline Phone (S492c)
From: jerry on 6/26/2006
The super secret Homeland Security
hotline phone number has
had to be added to the national
"Do Not Call List" because
of constant telemarketer calls.
Especially annoying is the
frequent caller who keeps spouting,
"Hello! Are you satisfied
with your long-distance service
provider?"
One telemarketer called just
as US troops launched their
ground attack in Iraq, tying
up the phone line.
