Report: Google Announcing GrandCentral Acquisition Today Or Tomorrow
TechCrunch is reporting that Google will announce it's acquired Internet telephony company GrandCentral, which offers users one phone number for work, home, and cell. Google will pay $50 million or more, TechCrunch says. I gave GrandCentral a positive review in February. Five months later, I'm still using it. People call my GrandCentral number, and it rings my home, cell, and office phones. I've found some bugs in it, but overall it works well. GrandCentral solves the annoying problem of life in the 21st Century, where you have to give people three or more phone numbers to reach you, plus an outline of your schedule so they'll know when to call which number. Instead, you just give them your GrandCentral number. And if you move or change jobs, the GrandCentral number still reaches you. « My iPhone Odyssey | Main | Microsoft Fan Names Daughter 'Vista' » |
