Like on cell phones, you can see if it's a contact of yours or what number is calling. It's just automatically built in. But on actual answering machines which are on actual landline lines which nobody has anymore lol it was a big thing when they startedwhat do you mean by caller ID? me dumdum

I remember that during that time, the availability of caller id also depended on the type of line that the caller had. I was secretly mad at some friends for not having upgraded yet such that I could tell it was them who called being the control freak that I am. Maybe I also knew it was that friend because he stood out by not having caller id shown yet. I don't remember though...Namelesas shocked face is her imagining a world without caller ID/joke

We still have landlines here :-) But they are VOIP now. I miss the old dialtone melodies at the start of each call though.Like on cell phones, you can see if it's a contact of yours or what number is calling. It's just automatically built in.

Do you still have a landline? I don't know about where you are but here are so many people are ditching them because they have cell phones. We kept ours because there is at least a few people who will only call that number.I remember that during that time, the availability of caller id also depended on the type of line that the caller had.

Yes I do. It's actually useful because you can be reached during the night in emergencies when the cell phones are off. Also, people don't have to decide whom to call. Just call the whole household!Do you still have a landline? I don't know about where you are but here are so many people are ditching them because they have cell phones.
