Backwards Record -
Music to Your Ears?
This article
touches on the backwards record, and how it works for phone users who are
looking to simplify their life through this technology.
If you mention the
phrase "backwards record" to someone, you'll probably get varied responses. Some
people are likely to think you're talking about backmasking, or the process by
which a lyric or spoken phrase is recorded backwards and inserted into music.
Others might imagine a record playing backwards. Most people wouldn't think you
were talking about a part of the telecommunications industry. But that's exactly
what we're going to talk about -- what is a backwards record and how do we use
it?
Backwards Record --
Moving Emergency Services Forward
Phone companies keep
records of their users, which include full names, addresses, and zip codes,
among other info. These tidbits of information are stored in databases and are
made available to emergency services, so that, in the event of a crisis, a
caller may be quickly identified and assisted.
This same information,
however, is often also available elsewhere; namely on the Internet. Services now
exist to provide customers the ability to search for a person's complete name
and address by using his or her phone number as the basis of their search. This
is known as a reverse search.
Backwards Record -- How
It Can Help You
The whole concept of
searching "backwards" is highly interesting, but not revolutionary. As
previously mentioned, this is how emergency services help identify callers and
assist them when they phone in for help.
What the Internet and
modern technology have done is take this search tool and put it in the hands of
the general public. Now, what the public does with this powerful tool is up to
them. You can either sit around all day and search phone numbers just for the
fun of it, or you can take note of the technology, just in case you really need
to use it one day.
For example, you
receive a phone call that, for some reason, you couldn't answer (let's say you
were happily engaged in the bathroom). Now, when you exit the bathroom and
examine your phone, you see the missed call and realize that it is an
unregistered number (meaning, the number is not to be found in your phonebook
memory). What to do?
You can either call the
person directly (without knowing who called you or why) or you can do the
reverse search to find out who owns the number and shed light on the call.
Backwards Record -- A
Great Tune
As you can see this is
as far away from musical backmasking as one can get. But the goal of the
backwards record is that of identification and assistance. The
telecommunications industry is alive with constantly evolving technologies and
this is one of a few that really help shape the way we communicate. Better you
know about it and use it that to let the facility just exist.
