The search engine and cloud computer development company, Google, officially launched its telecommunications service, Google Voice, after being in beta mode in the past year.

Google Voice is a free phone service which allow users to combine multiple phone numbers to one direct line. A user can have their cell phone, office phone, home phone, and any other phone all correspond to one single phone number and line used by a Google Voice customer. Phone numbers used by customers can be a new Google Voice number or a personal number that will link to the website.

Google Voice also allows for the combination of voicemail accounts giving users the to check multiple voicemails simultaneously. Voicemails can also be transmitted from person to person with a new avenue that will allow users to email their voicemails to people all over the world. Voicemails can also be stored in the Google Voice databank without a limited shelf life. Most cellular phone carriers issue an expiration time on voicemails to keep their computer systems from being bogged down by excess files.

Google Voice can also sift through your voicemail automatically and convert audio files into text and analyzed through a powerful search function much like the main Google site. If the user searches a certain person’s name or a specific topic, Google Voice can immediately pinpoint what voicemails contain such information.

International calling rates are extremely low and all listed directly through the website and accompanied by a free text messaging service.

Google Voice is one of many software applications developed by the company that features elements featured on the Google search engine. Chrome, Google’s web browser, was recently rated as one of the top five most popular web browsers in the world. Google also offers the innovative smartphone technology that have a long line of computer applications which are carried by Sprint and Verison companies.

The name Google is a modification of the word googol. Googol is a measurement of a number that carries 100 zeros to the right of the decimal point.
