Google Voice for everyone ☀
Google Voice, known previously as GrandCentral, has finally gone live and is accepting sign-ups, but with one caveat: Google Voice is still limited to folks in the USA.
Google Voice Product Managers, Craig Walker and Vincent Paquet:
Over the past year, we’ve introduced a mobile web app, an integrated voicemail player in Gmail, the ability to use Google Voice with your existing number and more. Over a million of you are now actively using Google Voice, and many of the features released over the past year (like SMS to email and our Chrome extension) came as a result of your suggestions, so thanks!
Google Voice is just a great straightforward move by Google that plugs in yet another valuable piece to their unified communications suite. It’s interesting as well to note that in Google’s infographic , Google Voice shows up as a milestone separate from and ‘following’ a VoIP milestone. What’s the message there?
