We’re a week out from the first ever PhoneCon event at the System Source Computer Museum in Hunt Valley, Maryland on July 25-26. There are currently 10 talks, a FreePBX workshop, a “Switchers Corner” with interconnected phone displays/demos, a museum tour, and vendor tables. We’ll be giving a talk on Saturday about “free-phone” projects and some of our successes and failures running one! More info at https://phonecon.org

Great seeing folks at PhoneCon today! It was a lot of fun. We brought 3 working Canadian payphones for people to use and a telephone tester that was used be attendees to test phones and cords! #phonecon
