Slydial Lets You Skip the Uneasiness & Go Straight to Voicemail
Josh Milenthal — August 3, 2010 — Pop Culture
The Slydial service is an application that skips directly to the voicemail of the person you are calling. The person that you dial isn't notified that you've called them until they see a voicemail in their inbox. The Slydial service allows you to skip all of the awkward moments you never want to have, but gets the message across at the same time.
If you've ever not known how to break up a relationship without it being awkward, wanted to avoid long talks with family members or ignoring that creepy guy/girl from the bar who keeps calling you, Slydial is for you.
