Google to Index Google Voice?

Last Updated on December 14, 2022 by Dan Nedelko

In an interesting although expected move Google is about to relaunch GrandCentral as Google Voice with a few new features

• Free voice mail transcription which converts recordings into typed text Users have the option to have these messages sent to themselves as emails or texts enabling them to search through sort save copy or even forward material from voice mails
• Free conference calling
• Cheap international calls with rates competitive to online telephony leader Skype $002 a minute to France or China $003 to Chile or the Czech Republic for example
• Text message organization texts are sent to whichever mobile phones you specify including multiple ones at once They are also collected into your Google Voice inbox like email and can be filed and kept a first in mobile phone history the NY Times observes As is the case with Gchat on Gmail back and forth texts will be kept as conversations

Now that means that pretty much your entire digital communication stream can and will be captured by Google Its going to be in an index somewhere I would be 100 certain that your Google Desktop Search will index these entries and Google will keep a cache

I think Ill stick with Skype Is anyone else going to try this out There is an inherent coolness factor but Im not sure how much more information Google cough Big Brother needs about me Check out httpvoicegooglecom
