From author's site:

TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design. It started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together people from those three worlds. Since then its scope has become ever broader.

Ring-To Number

When you sign up for a Ring-To number, you get a way to let people call you directly without giving your actual phone number! Here's what happens:

1. You put the Ring-To widget on your homepage, social networking page, or any other web page.
2. The Ring-To widget displays an anonymous phone number with your own personal shortcode.
3. Callers dial the anonymous phone number and shortcode, and the call rings on the phone of your choice.

Whenever possible, Caller ID will display on your phone just like any other call you might receive. As with any other service, there will be instances where the caller's number is not displayed.
