I’ve been using Ribbit Voicemail ever since SpinVox died. Sadly, Ribbit has croaked.
So, how to get my voicemails transcribed and have MP3s emailed to me?

Sign up early.
I dawdled and so was only able to get a ticket for Saturday. I feel like I missed out on a lot of interesting conversations.

My Photoshop skills are legendary!
Here are the things that I want – [...]
It was the best of phones – it was the worst of phones…
I want to start this review by saying three things:
I got this phone for free – thanks Nokia! I’m an extremely demanding mobile user. I recognise that I am an edge-case; what I find annoying, you may not. I’ve [...]
Stephen Fry has recently recorded a BBC podcast about the history of the mobile phone.
It’s a really great series, and I encourage you to listen to it.
At one point in episode 4, Stephen sings the Nokia ringtone.
So, here it is for your edification, and delight.
