So I had folks call in to (206) 337-1750 and offer their ideas for the future telephone. I’ve put their messages into a podcast and I’m really happy with the results. I had no idea I would get such a great response to this challenge. You can listen to the first ever I Make Things Audio Podcast: The Future Phone right here. Click on the play button to make it play and click on the word “playing” to make it pause if you like.

The I Make Things Audio Podcast: The Future Phone
I got the IMT Audio Podcast Number (206) 337-1750 from K7 which is an awesome service that records and sends your telephone answering machine messages to you via email.
I had to tweak the expert settings in Quicktime 7 in order to make this 8 bit recording importable into Garageband. Click on the photo here to make it big so that you can set it up for yourself.
A special thanks goes out to the anonymous participants who called in to make their predictions: The World Will End Guy, The Toilet Scrubber Woman, and The Future Genius Guy.
The funny thing is that I was not trying to be anonymus, I was just trying to focus on ideas. And it was late and it is kind of a random thing to just call into some guys podcast. You and I could spend an hour talking about what a phone could be.
Cool podcast! And thanks for the link to K7. It seems pretty easy and a great idea.
I LOVE IT! great idea, great great great!
