"Numbr" is a cool idea!

Numbr from Craigsnumber - excellent marketing move

Ever since I wrote about Craigsnumber as an excellent free tool for anonymous disposable phone numbers, I have reflected on the name -
While Craigsnumber is a natural for using it on Craigslist (tho' the two are not affiliated),
Would I use "Craigsnumber" on MySpace for example? Any other consumer site?

I was pleasantly surprised to find "numbr.com" which redirected me to Craigsnumber.com and a familar tool with all the call management features I love from Craigsnumber, including blocking off known telemarketers, a "follow me" if I am busy on my phone, and so on.

Then I noticed "Digg my numbr" on Digg.com - it all came together very nicely for me.

Comments welcome; I see NUMBR as a cool marketing move by the Craigsnumber team.

On another note, if you are riding out on the west coast these days, Yosemite is an excellent destination. A few of us rode out on Saturday, hiked up the Upper Yosemite Falls - just what riding and hiking were meant to be!
