This little site called I can’t find my phone just made my day! It’s brilliant:
Do you know those moments, when you can’t find your phone but there’s noone around you could ask to call you? Well, that’s what www.icantfindmyphone.com is for. Fantastic! And what an adorable execution. Too bad it doesn’t say something like “congrats, you found your phone!”, once you pick up!
(thank you Dave)
doesn’t work for anyone but Americans, it seems. I just use skype which isn’t as cute but at least works internationally.

such a great idea! i almost want to lose my phone now just so i have a [legitimate] excuse to use it
Oct 25th, 2010 / 1:45 pm
doesn’t seem to work for Americans either. at least not landlines. perhaps it’s just for mobile
Oct 25th, 2010 / 2:03 pm
I’m American, and I just tried it with my office (landline) and cell phone. Nothing.
Oct 25th, 2010 / 2:09 pm
The traffic spike used all of my Twilio credits! Should be all working again now. :)
Oct 25th, 2010 / 2:27 pm
It does work now, thanks!
Oct 25th, 2010 / 2:30 pm
I just tried it calling my mobile and worked like a charm. Sweet idea Dave, congrats
Oct 25th, 2010 / 3:46 pm
It worked for me and I live in Canada in the 519. It did take a while to ring my phone, though, maybe 5 or 10 minutes.
Oct 25th, 2010 / 4:05 pm
Does it cost anything?
Oct 25th, 2010 / 4:06 pm
doesn’t work for me in california, just tried twice. good idea though!
Oct 25th, 2010 / 4:47 pm
Dave is awesome.
Oct 25th, 2010 / 4:50 pm
This is truly brilliant! Thanks for the find.

How does this help you if your phone is dead and searching for it??! Most people can already use another phone to call their cell phone, but if the battery is dead it’s not going to help. Need some kind of emergency beep!

How is this not a blatant ripoff of WheresMyCellphone.com? Which actually works and has been around for years.
Oct 25th, 2010 / 8:20 pm
just use gchat phone. free if used within your own country.
Oct 26th, 2010 / 2:27 am
Very cute idea!

For those that have had trouble getting it working or seeing a slow response, try again. Dave was having trouble getting the voice API he was using to scale to his call volume. He switched over to Tropo this afternoon so he could scale it.
Disclosure: I’m the product manager for Tropo and helped Dave get the app moved over to Tropo.

it worked for me in Montreal!

Ummm . . . I tested the service with my cell phone, which rang and I heard the message when I answered. But then I received a call from the same number on my private work line, which I didn’t answer . . . but Googled the number and got this:
http://800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-208-953-1569/2#p144800657652278188
Apparently there are several people receiving multiple calls on different lines from the service. It kinda freaked me out because I’m not sure how or why it would call a land line . . . or even connect my cell with my my private work number. Very odd.
Oct 28th, 2010 / 11:02 am
LesleMora: It only calls numbers that are typed into the box. So someone’s typing your number into that field, perhaps on accident (a typo) or as a prank.
I know Dave is working on a way of adding your number to a blacklist so you can stop folks who are pranking you. I’ve also talked with him about setting up some limits so someone can’t use the service to repeatedly call numbers.
Oct 28th, 2010 / 11:28 am
So what you’re saying is I know some pranksters on Facebook? Good to know Adam, good to know. Lucky for me the field is narrowed down to the usual suspects . . . those characters who are privy to my desk number. Paybacks are hell. muahahahaha . . . ahem . . . sorry, getting ready for Halloween.

Nice idea, nice design :)

Very neat application !!

not working for INDIA cell phones..!!
Nov 7th, 2010 / 1:57 am
I LOVE it & had to add it as a bookmark…DAVE MUST HAVE BEEN BLESSED WITH A SHARP MIND, A WARM & SHARING SOUL. This site has decreased my daily senior moments along with my blood pressure. I sent him a cup of coffee, however, I think I should have sent enough to have a cup a week for a year! So, lets all SHARE A SNOWFLAKE this Christmas season, if everyone sent him enough for a cup of coffee maybe we could return a bit of pleasure & make HIM SMILE! So easy thru paypal. This had to cost him some $$$ & there is no charge to use it. Happy Holiday Season Dave & Thanks Again.
Dec 4th, 2010 / 3:28 pm

It is best to participate in a contest for probably the greatest blogs on the web. I will recommend this web site!
Mar 1st, 2012 / 3:03 pm
In any case, it truly is hunting really very good
on all fronts. The Oranje, in spite of their defensive lapses, have verified to be a 2nd fifty percent group that will capitalize on any possibilities they get.
Spain’s possession game seemed one hundred times sharper against the Germans than it did towards Portugal (1st half specially)
and Paraguay, and how the Dutch responds to that is likely to determine the result their assault has on Ilker Casillas’
fortress. Wesley Sneijder needs 1 a lot more huge sport. Robin
Van Persie needs to discover the again of the internet at the very least when.
We could be looking at one particular of the most entertaining finals since France-Brazil in ’98.

This is not impossibgle due to the fact most of these
repossessed properties forr sale can be yyours for up to 60 % less than their actual value.
They’re the self-made men and women desiring to live oout their
lives on savings, not oon government dependence. Unfortunately, people are not always
too keen on the idea of buying something sight unseen.

After I originally commented I appear to have clicked on the -Notify me
when new comments are added- checkbox and from now on every time a comment is
added I receive four emails with the exact same comment. Is
there an easy method you are able to remove me from
that service? Thank you!

There’s likely no superior strategy to amaze and wow household, friends, operate colleagues, employers and associates than wearing
an intelligent, superior and person set of the most recent designer glasses.
The initial level is individuals should obtain frequent attention assessment, so as to have the newest vision prescription.
