Google Voice
One of the greatest features of Google Voice is that it transcribes your voicemails so that you can read them like email. You can also set up custom outgoing greetings for different callers ( very cool if you want to tailor a special greeting for a specific client ). All of this can happen with both your google voice number (oh yeah, you get an extra! phone number) or your current mobile number. If you are one of those that can’t operate without text messaging, google voice gives your free text messing.
