I've tried persuading many of my friends&relations to use VoIP but to be honest, the only people who seem the least bit interested in talking to me on the phone are my doctor/dentist calling to confirm/remind appointments and headhunters who insist on phone interviews, which I consider as lame and useless as email interviews, after all so much of meaningful communication is face to face, non-verbal..
If you (and I) had a real VoIP phone replacing the old POTS in your home, you could do call screening. You could route those calls to a machine asking questions before it decides to bother you with a ring - or refusing. Just what they do to you when you call them. Must real people phone my mobile (cellular). -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 13.1 x86_64 "Bottle" at Telcontar)
