Google Voice for All
I’ve been a big fan of Google Voice since… Well, since before it was even Google Voice.
In fact, I’ve been using it since it was first launched as GrandCentral.
If you’re not familiar with Google Voice, it simply gives you a (new) phone number (for free), and let’s you forward it to another phone (or, phones).
Why is that so cool?
Here’s where the magic begins… You can have a separate number for your business, for example, and have it ring both your home and cell numbers. If nobody answers either, the caller will go to a separate (Google Voice) voicemail, which you can customize for your business.
And I’m just beginning to scratch the surface. You can set Google Voice to not ring certain phones at certain times, have it screen your calls… Oh, and you can have it email you a transcript of missed calls.
When does “a penny saved” become “a buck & a half lost?”
Have to admit, I’ve been enamored with the cool GPS products coming from Garmin, Tom-Tom, and the like.
