This may be the single most humane page on the Internet. It will relieve billions of humans of millions of hours of stress and fret. It answers one of the most critical and often uttered questions of the day, the week, the month. To wit:
Where's My Cell Phone - Find Your Misplaced Cell Phone Fast!
Does it work? I can only say, "In the bedroom, in the closet, in the clothes hamper, halfway down, in the left front pocket of my jeans."
Bookmark this now and don't say I never do anything for you. I just did.

Not helpful if you left it in the car.

And isn't there usually a landline or friend's cellphone handy to do the dialing anyway?

Posted by: John Hinds at March 5, 2008 1:29 PMWell, there's usually a landline around only if you want to pay another $50 a month to have telemarketers call you.
Seriously, I haven't had a landline in years. Can't see the sense of it.
As to ringer off or battery out, well, you can't make the world foolproof.

Hmmm... Don't like someone? Want to annoy them, without any way to track that back to you? This seems to me like the ideal harrassment tool.
Sorry if this seems a bit negative, but years of engineering doing worst-case design turns one into a professional pessimist.
