Google sent me an invite to use their new Voice technology. So basically they gave me a phone number and I can have it ring any number of phones I want. It's like call forwarding, but with a ton of other options. So I figured I'd test this one out and put a call me button on my blog. You won't actually get to talk to me, but I have it set up so you can leave me a voicemail. </p>

<br /><p>We'll see how it goes. If there's a feature where I can send a text from the number they gave me, or make a call from it, then I'll likely keep it because it makes screening calls a hell of a lot easier haha.</p>

I got the same invite too, cept i've been to busy to set it up. Let me know how it goes, so I know if it's worth the headache :P

I've been using it for a few months, it works well but occasionally forgets what is supposed to ring where.

My favorite feature- its voicemail service is working instead of my cell/home voice mail, and it emails me these HI LARIOUS transcriptions - they're really bad - and a link to a playback button so I can play back voice mails from anywhere.

 

People don't know where the hell I am, and I never know what number they called, it's great for those stealth occasions when you don't want to know what the f**k is going on.
