shai Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 No problem. And it would be great if the people who I invited could hook up at least one invite in here. That way everyone should get covered. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsmbfan Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 i signed up for this but never found a valid reason to use it. shed some light? i figured it would be good for prank calling, or for giving your number out to hos.... anything else I'm missing?

KITTENS Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 For some reason mine aren't appearing yet but I am sure I will them shortly, I will make it known and then they are up for grabs. If you have an android phone then your set because all of your phone numbers are already on google voice. you can easily export your phone numbers into a csv file on most major email handles and then just upload them like a photo to your google voice contacts. If google crashes now, I will be really really fucked. They basically control my email, phone service, and phone platform. once chrome os comes out they will just run everything. scary anyone?

shai Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 Don't stop doing backups. All my online data (email addresses, bookmarks, etc.) is updated and saved as HTML or text files. I don't trust Google implicitly but I like the features and they haven't given me a reason to not trust them. And I doubt that Chrome OS is going to take over in any big way any more than Android has. nsmb, I use my account for voicemail and SMS and when I get a cell someday it will be a secondary number for that too thanks to Grandcentral. You can have it ring your cell or house phone when you get a call on GV. Overall, it's pretty cool and has a lot of perks for a free service, so if you have an account it's definitely worth spending a hour or two messing around with it. Also, MG posted a way to make free calls with GV, but it's a lot of work and I don't feel like hassling with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercer Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 The main perk is you can pick out a good number, or at least you used to be able to. The next main perk is the shit is free, rings any phone you tell it to so you'll never have to change your number again. Also you can have it ring you only if one of your contacts call, any other unknown number goes straight to voicemail. Set up multiple outgoing voicemail messages for different numbers, set it up to just text you a transcript of the voicemails you get instantly to. All kinds of flexibility and it's free.

DRUNKEN-ASSHOLE-ONER Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 WTF is a google voice??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KITTENS Posted November 2, 2009 Share Posted November 2, 2009 The googlevoice mobile app is nice. the voicemail to text is pretty accurate and its nice because I dont answer my cell 70% of the time and this way if theres a real emergency I will know without having to listen to the vm. it also acts just like visual voicemail for the iphone. it also saves every sing voicemail in both text and audio files just like email. i didnt choose to change my phone number to a google number, because soon you will be able to get the same features, but if you did opt to do that, then you have free sms as well. does anyone get the making calls thing? I call the google voice number assigned to my phone, and from there I can opt to make a call, but I dont know if google voice is replacing my voice mail in the sense that I can call it for free, because if my calls to google voice are free and I can make calls from there than I should cut down my minutes on my plan to save money. I had trouble finding this out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have used chrome but firefox has way more extensions and neat little add ons and lots of safety measures chrome doesent. They are launching a full fledged os soon, which will be integrated with the browser and all of the google features. chrome has a new "artist theme" plug in for the browser, the jenny holzer one is aight. the mark ecko theme looks like a bunch of collegiate designers looked at this very website with their butt loving penis eyes. kind of like everything he has ever produced.
