RNC Protest Infoline Working! A Phone Based RSS Reader

For information about the RNC protests in New York you can call (212) 400-7458.

Gaba and I, along with some friends have setup a call in line for people wanting to know about events and breaking news from the protests in new york. We did it with asterisk, festival, and some funky perl scripts.

It pulls rss feeds for events and breaking news converting them in to audio that people can hear from the streets.

For anybody interested, there is some more information on the wiki page about the project.
