Google Voice Tips! Call In Your Grocerry List To Your Email

Call In Your Grocerry List To Your Email snapvoip.blogspot.com
Google Voice gives you many features that makes your life easier. But if you put your imagination to work, you can get a few more things done.
Just imagine, you get a call from your wife or husband (May be even your kids) asking you to pick up some items on the way home. You are at your office, having a conversation about your new project with your collegue(S) or in the middle of a meeting. Ususally you would break your conversation and the train of thoughts to jot down the list or have to ask your loved ones to call back later.
Not so if you are using Google Voice!
If you get the above call, after the first few lines, you can send the call to your Google Voicemail by pressing "4" on your keypad. The call will be recorded and could be accessed like normal Google Voicemail. If you have configured so, it will be emailed to your GMail, which you could access right from the isles of supermarket on your smartphone.
So now you have no excuse for forgetting items on your shopping list!
Even if no one is calling you, you can call in your shopping list from home and later retieve from anywhere!

Calling Canada Is Free Again With Google Voice

Free Calls To Canada With Google Voice.
When the Google Voice was known as GrandCentral, I used to call my buddies and some professors in British Colombia for free. When Google Voice came about, I lost that ability but still I could call any where free within the United States.
I read today that Google Voice has brought the feature back and I will be able to call my contacts in Canada for free and my account balance will not drop when I call those contacts in BC. Thank you GV,
Also the introduction to Google Voice series, Google Voice For Newbies by the Googlers, Heather and Carol has a new article explaining Why Google Voice users are calling themselves.
Yes I did too call myself (from home phone to cell or vice versa) in the beginning but those days are long gone. But they are talking about how Google Voice works! It is cool when you realize that GV rings both the ends of the conversation.

The article has very valuable tips for new users of Google Voice, like explaining that your contacts are shared among applications like GMail and that and remembering your choices at the computer you were initiating the call.
If you need further help, in making calls, GV has an entire article on making calls under the help topics.
Enjoy your conversations, in many a ways!

Google Voice Tips And Getting Started Info for Newbies

Google Voice Tips
Sometimes it is a big step for most people what one takes in a stride. I had no trouble setting up and using my Google Voice Account. In fact I gave instructions and help to my friends over the phone using Google Voice, it was fun to demonstrate the capabilities of Google Voice. But many people do not have good friends who are experts in Google Voice like me.
Then I read this post by two Googlers who just got into Google Voice and takes you through initial steps at least how to take them with the help of Google Voice Getting Started Guide.
One thing that I "learned" (there goes my expertness!) that you need to be wise in choosing your Google number, because once chosen, you cannot change it unless you pay $10!
One always learns.

Google Voice Tip;
Once you are logged in to your account;
Press the "c" key to start a call. Press the "m" key to start an SMS.
