Phone number to word - mnemonic generator
| Tweet |
Phone numbers like strong passwords (enforced by systems like online banks) are typically beyond 8 digits (in most countries) and hard to remember - unless you are using some kind of mnemonics.
Interestingly, there is a phone number to word/phrase generator online that splits a phone number into a single or multiple words. This works on the fact that on most phone handsets, numbers have alphabets A-Z mapped to them.
Kevin Meltzer, has a Perl script to Mnemonic Phone Numbers.
Crucial to the effectiveness of the mnemoics generator is a dictionary (or collection of various dictionaries on slang, brand names etc) that can convert a number to a convenient memorizable word or phrase or set of words.
I look forward to writing my own program/web service sometime that converts a number to a easy to remember word or set of words & I welcome feedback/ideas related to this.
