livejournal is my decision-making process

[coraa]

I haven't bothered to change my phone number since moving to Seattle, so I've still got a 213 area code, which is LA, of course. I've been thinking about getting a new phone recently, and I'm trying to decide if it's worth changing my number when I do, to a Seattle area code.

The pros of changing are that the number are, obviously, that it will be local to where I live. (I'm not sure how many people that affects -- I think most of my friends mainly use cells -- but there may be some friends who it does affect, and of course things like the doctor's office, etc.) The cons are, equally obviously, that I'll have to tell everyone the new number, including changing it for credit card companies, doctor's offices, blah blah blah.

So I turn to LJ.

Bonus points if you can tell me why!

B has something set up with Skype wherein he has a local number in Sydney that forwards to his LA cell phone. It has a few bugs, I gather, but it's an option.
