Lessons Learned
Here are my favorite Gmail and Google Voice links. I have successfully implement the first one (Use Gmail…). I love it when I have an empty Gmail inbox. It is empty because the emails I do not want are deleted and the emails I want to save have been archived with the appropriate “star” or “label”. Still in the process of developing a more effective “getting things done” approach at work. Any suggestions you can share would be appreciated.
My favorite Google Voice links are listed below. My primary personal cell phone number is a Google Voice number (224-306-9448). I enjoy the free voicemail to text transcription service! Reading the imperfectly transcribed voicemail messages is so much faster than listening to the messages, taking notes, etc. As soon as I started using this service I knew the traditional phone companies (land or cell) and their high priced services were in trouble. I expect Google to turn voice communication into a free commodity funded by their web ad revenue. I can’t wait to try the new Google phone. Google’s phone is predicted to require only a cell data plan or wifi to support the Google Voice (VoIP) calling.
