Hopefully incoming calls remain free! -- for all your Linux questions |

Re: No email yet said by nklb:Haven't gotten the email yet, but I have been enjoying the service for a few years now. It's nice having a "throwaway" number I can give out. Yes. I have been using it the same way. A nice way to give out a phone number you don't want to be bothered with but still get msgs if necessary. -- My BLOG .. .. Internet News .. .. My Web Page |

Some see this as another privacy problem. Because the transcribed voice msgs will be searchable, they see it as another attempt by Google to invade your privacy and serve up more ads. »tech.yahoo.com/news/pcworld/2009···emailtoo -- My BLOG .. .. Internet News .. .. My Web Page |

Re: No email yet i dont have an email, but when i signed into "grandcentral" it has a banner saying i'm not ready to upgrade yet and to check the blog. I've had this number for quite a while, and originally i never used it. I havent had a problem with any call quality. One thing I do love is the retention of the messages. -- | map your city | |

Re: Phone to email !!! It's true, it is. (See my post here.) I don't see how we can have this tech without this downside. Hopefully at least the same feature will be available from multiple providers. |
