Yep, totally agree :-)

I really believe it's also cultural. I'm in Italy, and it wasn't just family and work, but all kind of random people... People don't like to use email, here, so they call you for anything (like your bank, landlord, whate

My clients were much worse I guess... Do you need a web app? :-)

Thanks, will check it out!

Exactly my point.

Yep, actually at the beginning I thought I'd do that. They call it "virtual office" here, there are reps pretending to be your secretary, who pick up and then send you an email with the transcript. Then, email worked so surpr

I think that for them the situation improved. If they called me to see if I knew their password and I didn't help them they'd feel stuck, now they just go in their inbox, find it themselves, and go on with their lives without emai

All right... So I'm not 100% crazy! :-) I forget to mention the money! My plan was about 50€, too... After a year, I regularly talk to my wife and other people via email or Messages. Both are a lot less invasive than your cell phone ri

Yep tried that, too :-) I've long had this prob. with getting interrupted by calls. Again, people would get mad that I ignored them, or that I wasn't available. Somehow, since you don't have a cell phone they don't get o

Yeah, that's just my personal experience. Being a web developer, I used to get a lot of calls from clients, so much that it got to be hard to work for me.

You're probably right. I looked into having a private number, but from other people's experience your number always gets shared. You might give it to 1 person for some reason and you end up with everyone knowing your number. Also,

I tried :-) But then people started saying that I was either not reachable or I ignored them. I didn't get rid of my cell phone on purpose, just used the fact that it broke to not get another one, and it just works great for me.
