Just a heads up to anyone interested. Google’s Grand Central which is a great (free) service that allows you to have one number for all your phones as well as a bunch of other features, is changing.

Today, Google announced that they are changing the name and soon allowing new users. It’s been invite only for a while then switched to only requests for area codes. As you can assume from the title it is now called Google Voice and the sign up to be notified when it is public is here.

I personally used to use it for my business phone number but since moving to Portland the number is no longer local and pretty useless. I wish they allowed for changing of numbers.

So what’s next… Google Life or Google Everything or Google We Manage Everything. It’s just a matter of time until every piece of your data is tied in with the giant. The next big brother???
