AREA CODE DAY

AREA CODE DAY
NOVEMBER 10
In the 1940’s, AT&T for the Bell System devised three digits to precede the normal seven-digit phone number. The first area code with “Direct Distance Dialing” (DDD) was 201 in the state of New Jersey, which then represented the whole state. The original phone numbers were just seven digits but because there weren’t enough numbers for everyone, the birth of area codes arrived.  Dial a long distance friend today! #AreaCodeDay #PhoneAFriend #ArtEase123DillyDays
