[TriLUG] VOIP soft phone help.

[Thomas Gardner]

I admit it, the thought did cross my mind to try to make it do some
simple stuff from voice commands.  I was thinking of calling it either
Big Brother (the walls have ears and all that), or maybe Sarah (from
Eureka).  If you have to have an ``attention'' phrase, you might as
well have some fun with it.

Thankfully, though, I'm not so geeky that this was my motivation for
the project.  I'm only just geeky enough to have thought ``well, if
I get it to work, it'll be there anyway.  Maybe I could make it do
[...], too.''
