This is really an awesome idea. My most recent exchange with other tech guys were limited to IRC (cumbersome, with all the problems a text only medium brings if you don't know the other guy/cannot guess the subtext) or, rarely, Twitter. Kent, I'd love to read about the results of your experiment and your side of the story after having answered a number of calls.
