Google Voice now works with your own phone number

Google Voice now works with your own phone number and not just the one the application provides. Unfortunately, this comes at a price, since the program does not feature all available extra features, although Google has not specified what´s missing.

If you´re wondering what Google Voice is, read on. In a nutshell, the telecommunication service provides you with a single US phone number to connect all of your existing ones, plus they can be independently configured (i.e. using different settings), say forward all incoming calls from an annoying neighbour directly to your voice mail. When this happens, you can either to listen to the voice message from your cell phone or computer, or read thanks to a special program that will convert it to plain text.
