I don’t have a home phone number. Haven’t had one in five years. Haven’t really needed one… except when I am working from home and I have marathon conference calls and I feel my mobile minutes slipping away.
And so, I always hoped for a way to make calls from my computer at no cost. Between Google Talk and Google Call, you’ve got the bulk of what makes Skype appealing – except Google is free (for now).
In one day, Google 1 million calls went through Google Talk. Vonage, Skype, make way for the gorilla.
Google, if you are listening, connect Google Talk to Google Voice for free and I will stop writing about how you are the devil. I promise. Also, as a friendly FYI, you should start coming up with better names for these products… you’ve got Google Voice, Google Talk and Google Call. It’s confusing.
