Elsewhere Online: Get a free disposable phone number with Numbr

Interesting web services just keep coming and coming. This service, Numbr, (following the odd naming convention originally created by Flickr, the photo-sharing site, gives you a way to let people contact you, without allowing them complete access to your life.

Privacy: Get a free disposable phone number with Numbr

Web site Numbr provides free, anonymous, disposable phone numbers.

...Numbr is Craigsnumber re-branded with a lot of cool new features. Numbr supports 23 US cities, can forward calls to up to 2 phones, blocks telemarketers, and offers a Do Not Disturb option from 9PM to 8AM. Additionally, the app can also take voicemails and email you your disposable number's call history. If you ever feel wary about handing out your real number for a short term contact (say for Craigslist), Numbr is the perfect place to go.
