Mark Brooks: Nice idea. Also check out Vumber.com. Essentially it’s a throwaway telephone number. You get a new number, a ‘Vumber’ (virtual number), which people can call and it forwards into your phone, and a separate voicemail system, if you don’t pick up.  You can also call out from your Vumber.  I helped guide Vumber to a solution that works both offline and online.  So, you can use this in a nightclub as easily as you can hand it out online.
