This presentation describes a series of modules and scripts created to make Drupal websites available via regular phones. By combining Asterisk and Drupal, the system enables individuals to use their phones to, among other things, send and receive voicemail, create and manage voicemail groups, record and access audio announcements, and organize community events. These slides were presented at a Drupal Boston meetup that happened on Nov. 3, 2009 at MIT.
