Travel Deal of the Day (July 15, 2009)

If you travel frequently, you will likely find a new service from Google quite helpful if people are trying to get in touch with you and you are frequently at different phone numbers.

The Deal:
Google Voice is a new product from Google that allows you provide a single (personal) phone number to everyone so that they can reach you regardless of your location. Google Voice will allow you to transfer calls coming into that phone number to most US phone numbers. Google Voice also provides a voice mail system that transcribes voice mails and emails the transcript to you. The service will record phone conversations for you (at your request), provides phone routing/forwarding and will also allow you to make free long distance calls (within the Continental US) and discounted calls worldwide.

Most of the Google voice services are free. The only catch is there is currently a waiting list to sign up for the service.

How:
Go to the Google Voice website to learn more about the service, and go to the Waiting List to attempt to be added to the list.
