Got the invite in gmail today. Still trying to understand the usefulness, but at least I reserved a number.

um can you send me an invite!!!!!

 

I thought this thing was closed, I didn't know it was open again!

 

It doesn't look like you can invite others like you could with gmail.

 

Google is taking over the world!!

 

I wants!

 

Is there more information on this? What exactly is it besides what is stated on the website?

 

 

From what i can tell, you get issued a phone number. Then you setup where that phone number rings (home, office, mobile or all 3 at once). It does VM to text and SMS transcription and has this cool feature called Listen In (like a home answering machine where you can hear the VM as someone is recording and jump right on to talk to them). Block call feature will send a "You have reached a number that has been disconnected" message to whoever you list to block. It has a lot of features.

 

Sounds like a good thing for small businesses....

 

I heard that you will be able to port your current phone number over to google later this year.....now that is cool!!

 

I want!!

This looks awesome

 

i got the invite 4 days ago. set it up just now, pretty sweet. i got to pick a sweet phone number too, last four digits are "0001"

 

doesn't appear to have any option to invite or at least not on mine atm

 

i want an invite

 

google never ceases to amaze me. its not often that im very impressed by a service, and when i am its usually google. they target all the sweet spots and charge nothing.

cant wait for chrome to come to macs!!!!!!!!!!

 

I want too!

 

It's already available on Mac. Also it's built of the same technology as Safari so you might as well use Safari 4 cause it's almost identical to Chrome.

 

He might be talking about the new Chrome OS

 

I wonder how you can get invited...or at least how someone can invite you.

I want...I want....

 

I reckon you can try this if you haven't already..

I haven't received my invite yet On top of that I applied for a position there and they haven't called me

 

Must Have Invite!!!!!

 

i can give someone my invite...they sent me one for some reason then when i went to sign up they said it's not available in canada

 

^^ sell it on ebay

 

Want Now!

 

Send it to me let me know what info you need

 

I would like an invite if anyone has the ability to send one!

 

I had it back when it was called Grand Central. I use it all the time when I give my number out. The best part is free SMS and voicemail transcription.

Let me see if I have anymore invites.
