Comment Lines: Why 206-XXX-XXXX?

Posted by Adam on October 6th, 2006 | Print This Post Print This Post

If you listen to many podcasts, you’ll hear a lot of people asking you to call and leave a message on their comment line. The weird thing is, every one of these people seems to have a phone in Seattle.

Of course, Seattle isn’t the hub of the podcasting world, it is just the home of k7.net. k7 will give you a free phone number, voicemail service, and fax inbox. According to their site, k7:

… channels your free voicemail and fax messages directly to your e-mail. K7 Unified Messaging provides you with a free phone number. This number enables you to have your voicemail messages and faxes delivered directly to your computer. You also have the option to view and listen to your messages right here on the K7 Web site.

Oh and, in case you were wondering, k7 is a service of International Telcom Ltd. that seems to exist to promote the larger company — that’s why it’s free.

Here’s a sample message:

    Another option for a Listener Line is Private Phone from NetZero. It’s free and offers area codes from around the U.S.

    Tom,

    I hadn’t heard of that service before. A quick check makes it seem good, so I’ll definitely look into it more!

    Thanks for telling me about it,

    Adam
