To address the issue about the Firefox browser, I develop [if you want 
to call it that, lol] the sites on Opera so it should work fine in 
Firefox.  Nothing fancy at all just HTML 4.0 forms, etc.  The other 
poster hit the nail on the head, it was out of DIDs. I just loaded 
another 200 random dids in so we'll see how long those last.

I'm going to add code to confirm the email addresses that people signed 
up for to avoid "DID hogging" and also going to reclaim DIDs that go 
totally unused for more than probably a 30 day period to keep DIDs from 
going stale and unused.

And about the free outgoing, I don't want people to jump through hoops 
at all.  That's not what this was supposed to be about.  I don't want 
people to have to use something like Paypal either, that's irritating 
and a lot of people used the service from out of the country [like some 
US Marines calling home from Iraq] that couldn't use paypal anyway.

I do like the Web of Trust idea.  Maybe I'll do it google style and give 
out some invites to people [say 5] and then those 5 people will get a 
couple invites, and so on.  Each invite would point back to the person 
who gave it so if I trust Bob and he trusts Sam who trusts Sue but Sue 
turns out to be an abuser, I can see that Sam give it to Sue and revoke 
Sue's account and make her "untrustworthy" to the system [blacklisted]. 
  If Sam invites several people that all end up black listing, than 
Sam's ability to get invites will get removed [but he would not get 
blacklisted since he is not abusing, just passing out invites to 
abusers].  This would have to all be done by machine to scale ... not 
sure I have the time to put the code together but if it worked it might 
be useful for other free services out there.

What do you guys think?

yours,
matthew
