topocket




I feel special. Tonight google launched something called GrandCentral. Or maybe it was already launched. It's cool. You get a phone number and you can direct that number to multiple numbers. If someone calls that number it will patch through to all the numbers. Very useful for small business.

But they also have this button thing, which can be pasted into Blogger and facebook mysteriously. This creates the potential for anonymous calling of bloggers. You can press that button and call me. You don't really know who I am and I don't know you but you can contact me by phone at any time. Kind of neat. I think this might create a new age of internet interaction. People may look back at typing as an antiquated way to communicate online 10 years from now, once google's GNet matures. I'll tell you about the GNet later...but for now think of it like google setting the internet free...giving it to the people....
