Voicemail is an automatic answering service offered by your phone service provider. After you subscribe to this service, your phone service provider’s voice mail system answers calls for you when you are unavailable to answer the phone or when your line is busy. When a message is recorded a notification is displayed.
When leaving a voicemail, hanging up sends it. Here’s how it works: after the beep, the automated system on the other end starts recording all input from your end into an audio file. That audio file is then registered as a new “voicemail” for the intended recipient.

I had to call Elijah this week to get some information. I tried his technique on him, cutting off my message in midword. I said, “I’m going to quote you in my column this week and I need…” He called me back in under 3 minutes laughing hysterically. This technique could revolutionize message leaving. I’ve been using it all week and it works. Be careful about how far you go on the humor with someone you don’t know.
