Not effective enough. I could by some chance be that the caller also speaks German. You should try using Klingon instead...

I didn't say I was speaking politely.
But as for the Klingon - I don't speak such words - and there's also the worry that (aside from the caller having no life and also speaking Klingon) they'd recognize the language and put me down on the "hopeless nerd" list and I'd get calls from dating services.

Your tactic is quite similar to mine, but I can laugh during the call:
when the number is unknown I let my 4 years old daughter to answer, after having set the speaker phone... one of her most favorite nonsense sentences is "Chicken's fife" (as the instrument); the most amusing part is to listen to the guy on the line trying to convince her to give the phone to her daddy or mummy whilst she introduce in the conversation always new "sentences" ...

I used to have a lot of fun with these callers..
"Oh really? You can see my computer from there? Wow, amazing... Windows? Yes, I have windows ME; it's wonderful, it does everything for me. I was telling my aunt she should get a copy, these new versions are no good, apparently you can get viruses from then and I haven't had my flu shots yet. My aunt thought that was unlikely, what do you think? My computer name? I call it The Electro-Mechanical Wonderbar Machine, isn't that a great name?"
...I can go on like that for a loooong time, and have! If you keep talking they can't get a word in edge-ways.
More recently when they say "your computer has a problem", I reply, "Which one has the problem?" ...and they hang up.
- I would love to change the world, but they wonβt give me the source code.

I've had several calls from the likes of him and I must say it is a lot of fun.
Come to think of it I'm about due it's been quite a while.

...it would appear.
All I get is "(redirecting)" and a "working" circle on the tab. (And I'm not the only one, either)
Fortunately, it's still fine in it's "People" incarnation on my tablet...
Is it working for you lot?
And the bad news is that Google Calendar is fine, and that means I still have to go to the damn dentist...

Google contacts? Is that another Google service I've never heard of before, and they're about to shut down?
(although it sounds like they may already have)
|
|
|
|
|
No, it's back now.
It's the online "People" app from Android, which shares your contacts between your phone, tablet, and PC so all three are up to date in the same way the Google Calendar does for appointments.
I have it as one of my pinned tabs in Chrome.

Those boxes (3rd, 5th) are the same letter, or I have a font problem here?
