Google Voice, The Future of Your Phone Calls

Google Voice pushes telecommunications forward.

A famous pioneer in web technology, creating the hottest search site in use today, Google stands at the forefront of corporations pushing towards a future that is inextricably tied to the rapidly developing arena of the web.

With some of the most brilliant minds at work under their roof, the services resulting from their ingenuity have fundamentally modified how we communicate with each other. From Gmail to Google Wave, to competition that desperately plays "catch up," evidence of this company's forward-thinking creativity abounds.

One of their more fascinating services is Google Voice, a telecommunications wonder that extends users a unique phone number from Google, to which any calls to your real phone - or, if you so choose, multiple phones will be transferred.

How it works :

* User creates ( assuming it is not taken ) a new phone number or selects one from a pool of numbers provided by Google.
* Once the Google Voice number has been chosen, inbound calls to that number will be forwarded to the assigned phones.

As an example, take the following scenario as testament to the convenience afforded by Google Voice :

While in the kitchen fixing dinner, you are awaiting a call from your brother about your sister-in-law's pregnancy, knowing that she is's due any minute. Your cell phone, which is your first way of communication, is upstairs. Yet, your home is also outfitted with a land line, with one phone located merely a foot away from the kitchen counter. Without knowing if you are home or not, your brother excitedly dials your Google Voice number, resulting in his call being forward to every phone assigned to it - including your land line.

With configuration requiring just some steps, use of this service is that simple, gathering our varied methods of telecommunication under the umbrella of Google Voice.

Further features include :

* Voicemail
* Call History
* Conference Calling
* Call Blocking
* Voice transcription ( translating your voice mail into text messages )
* Call transitioning, which allows you to migrate from one phone to next in the middle of a call.

Google now allows you to use your existing phone number with Google Voice, a feature that was only just announced. Your present number can be employed in tandem with a new Google Voice number. To read more about this new feature, visit here
