[Noisebridge-discuss] Where's the red payphone?

[nils at shkoo.com]

Sure.  If you already have a phone line (and a VOIP capable system) you'd 
like to route to us, just point it at pony.noisebridge.net (using SIP). 
Otherwise, here's a list of ome VOIP service providers you could look 
into:

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/DID+Service+Providers

Once you get the number routed, talk to one of us who maintains the 
asterisk installation and we can have your number routed to the payphone 
(assuming we get it back at the space).
