That was Great!

Adding Pulp Fiction to Net Flicks now.

I got my invite a few months back for Google Voice, still trying to figure out what to do with it. Mentioned in an earlier post about the voicemail to text, it's very cool, and fairly accurate, however you do need to listen to them to verify what looks like gibberish.

Agreed; It actually tries to make sense of everything and sometimes it's just plain wrong. So wrong I disabled that feature within the first week.

It is nice having one number to work from while still keeping your cell private though so I can't complain.

Google voice would be useful if they did 2 things:

- Allowed you to set caller id (even if via a verification process), or allowed you to port your number to them.
- Sent calls directly to voicemail without so many additional rings.

Since I couldn't make them use my business number, there was no way to have people call my google voice number. No, I wasn't going to change my number for a free service I was unsure about. I thought, great, I'll just use it for voicemail, the voice to text service was something I was paying for with simulsays (simulsays.com) already and thought it was very useful.

Unfortunately, forwarding to google voice, unless they changed something, means the person listens to my desk phone ring 5 times, then google voice for 4 times, then it picks up. Wasn't very acceptable.

In a bit of time, it will be a great tool. Not quite there yet.

I like google voice because it keeps my cell number private even on outgoing calls. The transcription is pretty bad on voicemails though. And I haven't tried it, but you're supposed to be able to record incoming calls by pressing a button during your call...great for helping you remember things when you can't take notes.

I'm new here and you guys have all been a great help to me, I have one google voice invite left and any of you are welcome to it. Just PM me with your email and I'll invite you!

Got it, Thanks
