Google Gots Your Number
Google is quickly getting in the business of phone #'s. If anyone remembers the service "Grand Central" from 2006, it was a technology where you could manage all of your phone #'s with one central number. Someone calls, and all your phones ring: home, cell, work. It also had a online hub, where you could manage voicemails, texts etc...
Everyone thought after Google purchased Grand Central, that it was gone and forgotten, however, quite the opposite, Google has been working on it all along and is soon to release it as Google Voice(tm).
Here's what's so cool about it. You give out one number to everyone (well, you'll have to get new business cards and give a new number) and that's your one number for life. Then you can manage all your texts, emails, voicemails and phonecalls from one location.
On first thought, that sounds really cool. On second thought, it actually might be kind of scary.
but be your own judge:
