  1. CW: Repost: Your phone is not the problem

    Following the discussions in the blogsphere lately about our relationships with our phones, I'd like to echo Antonio Santos' sentiments, and add a few supporting thoughts of my own.

  2. «Signal: Registrierung künftig ohne Telefonnummer möglich»

    Hach, @signalapp, endlich! Ich verstehe, dass es ein Nachweis für Vertrauenswürdigkeit geben sollte doch dies müssen nicht wirklich pers. Daten sein und ja, Tel.Nr. vom Handyabo sind pers. Daten.

  7. If you're interested in this sort of thing (and who wouldn't be?!)

    The whole notebook full of late 1950s UK telephone routing codes is online as a pdf here: paulseward.com/downloads/Telep

    An OCR version will follow at some point in the handwavy future when I get around to it (if I don't forget).

  11. My new bedtime reading has arrived…

    In the UK, AC13 telephone signalling used pulses of 2280Hz to represent the digits of a dialled phone number, call progress state etc.

    This training document from 1983 was pretty late in the lifespan of in-band signalling like this, which had been around for 20+ years by this point.

    It’ll be fun reading this from a “what would it do if I poked $thing at $time” point of view

  24. This christmas tree made from a telephone cable was an exhibit at the “Young People's Exhibition”, Imperial Institute, London, 29 December 1936

    The cable dates from before PVC insulation was widespread. Each wire was individually insulated with paper, and the whole cable was covered in a lead sheath.

    Arranged in “pairs” there are 6024 wires in total.

  29. Christmas at Haywards Heath Telephone exchange 1953

    Lots of paper garlands and decorations adorning the CB10 switchboard here, but if you look closely there are paper santas/elves hanging from the cable turning sections where the positions wrap around the corners of the room.

    Thanks to Stefan on the "UK Switchboards" facebook group for finding it.
