Today we’re building an Automatic Call Distribution (ACD) System with Asterisk and, for home users, we’ll show you how to screen incoming calls and then quietly route them to any destination you’d like without tipping off the caller.

Want a dirt-cheap way to simultaneously ring your home or office phones and your cellphone with every incoming call? Using the free Asterisk@Home PBX on either a stand-alone Linux box or in a window on your Windows desktop, today we’ll show you how.

Continuing our carnage cleanup campaign following the release of Asterisk@Home 2.5, today we present version 2.5 of the Telephone Reminder System for Asterisk. Schedule delivery of customized reminder messages to any phone number at any date and time in the future. And it’s still FREE!

TeleYapper’s back today with version 2.5. And it’s better than ever with built-in support for redialing failed calls. TeleYapper is the perfect (free) tool for broadcasting announcements and reminders from neighborhood associations, schools, little leagues, fund raisers, and anything else except telemarketing calls. Enjoy!

Ever wanted customized CallerID numbers for each member of your family or for each of your employees. Today’s article will show you a dirt cheap and an incredibly simple solution using Asterisk and an all-you-can-eat VoIP service provider.
