I mean if they throw options out there for people to do whatever to make their lives simpler I say go for it. This also could be a great way to cut off voice plans to data plans and have one unique "IP Address" just for you. ]]>Jan 19th 2010 3:50PM<![CDATA[Comments on ENUM: it's the new telephone number, but it's going nowhere fast]]>http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/19/enum-its-the-new-telephone-number-but-its-going-nowhere-fast/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/19/enum-its-the-new-telephone-number-but-its-going-nowhere-fast/Jan 19th 2010 5:45PM<![CDATA[Comments on ENUM: it's the new telephone number, but it's going nowhere fast]]>http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/19/enum-its-the-new-telephone-number-but-its-going-nowhere-fast/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/19/enum-its-the-new-telephone-number-but-its-going-nowhere-fast/Well yeah some people will love and embrace it, nothing wrong with that, but I think anybody should get it's certainly not for everybody, and that's the thing, they don't seem to get that part, they often really act as if 100% of the people want such things.]]>Jan 19th 2010 6:50PM<![CDATA[Comments on ENUM: it's the new telephone number, but it's going nowhere fast]]>http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/19/enum-its-the-new-telephone-number-but-its-going-nowhere-fast/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/19/enum-its-the-new-telephone-number-but-its-going-nowhere-fast/I just don't get that the pushers/designers of such things don't seem to get the in-your-face flaws.

@raindeer it's good to find someone espousing the virtues of ENUM. It's a fantastic platform with great potential but I'm hard pressed to see how companies will be able to commercialize it, which is the only way they'll go through all the trouble of deploying it.]]>Jan 19th 2010 5:21PM<![CDATA[Comments on ENUM: it's the new telephone number, but it's going nowhere fast]]>http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/19/enum-its-the-new-telephone-number-but-its-going-nowhere-fast/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/19/enum-its-the-new-telephone-number-but-its-going-nowhere-fast/

Christ I hate morons. Grow up, go to college, get a real job and let us grown ups do our jobs in peace.

On the other hand, if you use lets say 4 different 'presences' and each has email and IM andsoforth it might be handy to have those bundled, you'd just have 4 bundles, or ENUM accounts, so you can keep it all ordered and manageable.]]>Jan 19th 2010 7:13PM<![CDATA[Comments on ENUM: it's the new telephone number, but it's going nowhere fast]]>http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/19/enum-its-the-new-telephone-number-but-its-going-nowhere-fast/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/19/enum-its-the-new-telephone-number-but-its-going-nowhere-fast/Jan 19th 2010 7:07PM<![CDATA[Comments on ENUM: it's the new telephone number, but it's going nowhere fast]]>http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/19/enum-its-the-new-telephone-number-but-its-going-nowhere-fast/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/19/enum-its-the-new-telephone-number-but-its-going-nowhere-fast/That's another thing, the damn spammers and psycho e-stalkers that attach to people sometimes, good point too.
There's so many of such deranged stalkers, not just individuals but also sometimes whole organizations like religious groups or even powerful people at companies who get some personal beef with someone, for instance journalists or bloggers, and start to seek to make trouble for them, not to mention political figures who pick up a hate for an individual, happens all the time.
