I worked from home for a few years. It was a great experience as I was able to tune my work habits to extract the most productive hours out of a day. An unfortunate downside was how often my home phone would ring and completely destroy my flow. I had played with Asterisk, the open source PBX (i.e. phone system) in another venture I was involved with where several people working at different locations needed to answer the same 1-800 number. If my home phone would ring into an Asterisk server I would be able to filter out unwanted calls and auto-dialers.
