摘要：
Methods and apparatuses to dynamically allocate location dependent telephone numbers to facilitate voice connections between people. One embodiment includes: responsive to a request from a user, selecting a telephone number from a plurality of telephone numbers of a connection server to match a location indicator of the request; embedding the telephone number in an advertisement, the telephone number to be used by the user to initiate a telephone call to the connection server for further connection to an advertiser of the advertisement; and providing the advertisement with the telephone number of the connection server as a response to the request. In one embodiment, responsive to receiving the telephone call at the telephone number of the connection server from the user, whether to play a prompt message to the user is determined based at least in part on statistic data about telephone calls collected at the connection server.
摘要（中）：
动态分配位置相关电话号码以促进人与人之间的语音连接的方法和设备。 一个实施例包括：响应于来自用户的请求，从连接服务器的多个电话号码中选择电话号码以匹配请求的位置指示符; 将电话号码嵌入到广告中，用户使用的电话号码向连接服务器发起电话呼叫，以进一步连接到广告的广告商; 并向广告提供连接服务器的电话号码作为对请求的响应。 在一个实施例中，响应于从用户接收连接服务器的电话号码处的电话呼叫，至少部分地基于关于在连接服务器处收集的电话呼叫的统计数据来确定是否向用户播放提示消息。
