Ring World

When my phone rings, the world springs to action

MP3 ringtones are so last year. The goal here is to cause the ringing of my phone to produce a real world effect, short of someone hitting me over the head with a baseball bat.

The mechanism proposed is the association of my phone# with a URL of my choice, which should be easily implemented in any number of "follow-me dialing" systems.

This URL will be a page programmed by me that will, for instance, send a signal to Aibo to bark, or make my robotic snake slither, or make all the X10 wired appliances in my house flash, etc.
