I guess it's a sign that we're finally a "real" company. As of today, we have working telephones on our desks.
Since our launch, we've all been working off of cell phones. We've used a virtual phone system that forwarded to those phones, with varying degrees of success based on tides, lunar cycles and general mood of the Interwebs.
But now, we have a real phone system with actual extensions and everything. You can find all of our direct dial contact info here.
Please forget our old number, which will be disconnected shortly, as soon as we find the scissors.
Big props to Jeremy and Eron, who suffered mightily to make all the tin cans and string work properly.

Now we all just look around when a phone rings like where is that coming from, it's an actual ring tone. The only down side is now I need to know phones numbers, no putting in a name and hitting send..really, land lines should be more like cell phones!

I don't see Tech Wiz Brett's number listed. How am I supposed to harass him?

I thought same. No DaGo, Dunck, or spud-head. For shame, Miko.
Imo, Curotolo's # should be on the mobile site when you hit "Report an error" so I can leave a tasteless voicemail rather than simple text.

Aha. I forgot to put the Dev team on the list as I was switching staffers around. Will fix posthaste.

Good thing. I was just gonna call every nearby number in the exchange until I hit him. It would have been an amusing half hour for your office, I imagine.

Congrats on the phones. Sure it will be a nice addition. Beats my offices system of customers calling in, then having the secretary run around trying to find the person the customer wants to talk to. Plus our office is a maze and we hide when the phone rings.

"Plus our office is a maze and we hide when the phone rings." - yeah thanks for that by the way - I hate you all. I'm never filling in for answering the phones ever again.
Welcome to the 19th century though. I hope the phones do not turn out to be the bane of your existence like they are here.

Funny epilogue: We all have nice, fresh clean direct numbers, so we're pretty much only getting calls from people using the directory on our contact page.
But, every one of our extensions is being hammered by telemarketers-- all selling the same product.
