- With the '''Davis Payphone Project''', we intend to take this idea one step further by creating a dynamic wiki-fueled database of Payphones in Davis, California. Not only will each listing include the number of the phone, but at least one photograph of the phone and hopefully a description of the surroundings as well as any stories that involve the specific phone. Thanks to the incredibly flexible technology of Wiki, compiling such a comprehensive list should prove much simpler and more involving than the original Payphone Project's design. This project will be able to seamlessly integrate with the Davis Wiki to enable users access to information on payphones surrounding each node on the Davis Wiki.	+ With the '''Davis Payphone Project''', we intend to take this idea one step further by creating a dynamic wiki-fueled database of Payphones in Davis, California.
