Google Voice

Today we have to research stuff on google voice. I think its pretty cool, except for the voice recording of conversations.

Basically Google Voice will allow you to recieve all your calls through a single number. The user has control over how their phone rings and operates. calls can be made from your phone and online, block callers at will and record custom greetings for different callers or groups.

Voice mail will be recieved in one location,and unanswered calls will go straight to google voicemail. Messages are checked by calling your google number or signing in to google voice.

Features include:
- ListenIn: It allows you to listen to voicemail messages as they are being recorded and it can be answered, if the reciever wants to reply.
- Recording Calls: As the title imply, calls can be recorded.
- Switching phones: By pressing a button calls from the moblie can be switched to the house phone, desk phone or whatever. I think thats pretty cool.

I found an article on cnet website about the application.
