  • @shakooba yaa

  • This is awesome! I'm fixing to graduate from college and go right into independent contracting for work...this will give me a HUGE step-up for my work. Just thinking about it... I can have a seperate work number, for no cost, that I can print on my buisness cards and keep buisness calls seperate from my private calls. Then keep all my calls neat, organized, and transcribed on a server...

    Very excited to try it. MAD PROPS Google!

  • why does my video always play choppy

    example: plays 20 sec stops for 16 sec

    continually again and again throughout the entire video.

    ANY VIDEO...ALWAYS..

    HELP

  • @SoldierKnowsBest apple ejected it from iTunes so how did you get it

  • Skype is still my choice to make calls and video chat. I still got love for google (ex. android,google tv.) ok lol.

  • Is Google Voice a VoIP app for the iPod Touch?

    If not, how can I connect Google Voice with Whistle Phone?

    Also, how do I send calls if I'm using the VoiceCentral app?

  • its not free for my tracfone win i call it takes mins.

  • you don't need an invintation; all u need is a gmail account. that it.

  • Excellent Demo Jordan... Seems like another BA Google Trick. Gonna have to check it out. 

    Shout out to the Lou... 63368

  • mate, I have already stated that my original comment wasn't in the least implying paranoia. I was making an observation about where technology is going and that one's internet usage (and now voicemails) will now forever be archived. I don't see how any of my comments make me paranoid - I just feel it's important that if you use these services that you be aware of it. Oh and by the way - thanks for telling me YouTube is a Google service...I had absolutely NO idea 8^()

  • Can you make and receive calls through the computer or just do voice mail and texts?

  • Great vid, thanks!

  • is that mean i no gonna lose my mints ?

  • I have one question I my mind. When I use the google voice number to call people, will this use my cellphone plan minutes? I just recently activated the google voice, I try to google this question, however, the best answer doesn't exist. Thank you for your answering.

  • Very helpful and thank you.

  • i installed google voice and got a agoogle number

    i am unable to place any call thru GV

    every time i get a message unable to complete call or sms

    advise solution

  • it's not work in israel!!!! ><

  • yes now it is in canada! gust go to Gmail and click call phone. I called my house.

  • Quick question I have spring I have 450 minutes to use for landline calls, I get unlimited mobile calls (cell phone 2 cell phone). Now if I use google voice will it be free minutes or am I using my minutes.

  • Nice Video. Expand upon call-routing more and more call specific calling examples. Like: minutes used on my mobile carrier applies or what if I only have a lower end calling plan that cover me regionally and then I get billed for wandering etc....And, how would billing then apply. Lastly, have you gone Android yet?

  • man, i got text only

    i use voice for droid 2 tok on

  • Really a great video. Thank you, that was super helpful and very well done.

  • so heres the thing i dont have cell service at my house so i got google voice now i can text through wifi which is awesome but i cant figure out how to make calls can you help me out can i make calls with google voice through wifi ?

  • hey bud, thanks for the info.. is there a way to upload your contacts? every time i get a text, it comes up with the 10 digit telephone #.. dont really memorize anybody's # anymore, so it's kinda hard to know who it is.. appreciate it : D

  • Go st.louis!

  • very nice video man :) and just wondering, how many times have you been deployed?

  • Hey here is my review on Google Voice.

    webupon(DOT)com/search-engines­/google-voice-review/

  • I call my friend almost every day in Thailand, about 4 hours each session. I use Vonage and it's a flat 30 dollar rate. Google Voice would cost about 217 Dollars if I replaced my vonage... very poor... I'm disappointed in google voice, it should be free all over the world. If they put like a 10 second commercial before each phone call, that would be better. Have the advertisers pay for our calls.

  • @izlude2 +1 i couldn't agree more. vonage wins in terms of call rates. my cell plan covers all my US national calls 24/7 anyway, so I guess this thing's only useful for people who don't have full coverage. our phone technology is way behind.

  • @izlude2 You spend 4hrs a day on the phone to your friend? What exactly do you talk about for FOUR HOURS???????????????

  • Been wanting to try this....

  • your vids are descriptive and sometimes interesting but you need to change your face expressions. you have the same laugh and smile and eyes and you never show emotion. it just really gets on my nerves. /mini-rant

  • Thanks for this vid--This is the clearest description of Google Voice I've come across yet-- thanks again, very helpful!

  • Free, lol,nothing is free,whats the catch? Sounds like someone wants easy info from as many people as they can get it from,why???

  • @DBSpy1 the trade off is less privacy bc they have a record of everything you talk about in one place

  • hey, thanks for the great video!

  • The google voice number is the only number you're going to need. No matter how many times you change your cell phone carrier's number your google number can be tied to that number and any other numbers. Also free SMS compared to AT&Ts limited SMS plans with outrageous prices.

  • I just got an Invite :)

  • So, I have google voice (in canada)

    Is it long distance if someone calls me?

    If I call someone from my GV number is it longdistance?

  • Comment removed

  • @dnguyen211 i was thinking the same thing.... good question. 

  • @keseytam i got it already. it shows the google number not my current number. its still pretty tight. i just tell my friends that i got a new number. never buying texting again if u have a unlimited data plan

  • Very good demo I must say =D keep up the goood work. Lol, I just found out about this.

  • Why does it say "Balance $0.00" on the left side...?

  • @BMJ2008 because you have to pay for international calling but it is a cheaper alternative to other options

  • @BMJ2008 - i guess he doesnt have money for international calls

  • @BMJ2008 thats only for international calls, in US calls are FREE :D

  • Very nice job. Google should hire you.

  • Great job. Thanks so much for the nice tutorial!

  • i wanna get it, not available in central america

  • So when u called ur cell from google voice, ur still paying for your minutes on ur cell plan right? So it's not really free calling in that sense... Can u call anyone without calling ur cell first? I'm confused :(

  • I'm from germany and here it isnt available yet! It still sais coming soon when i try to apply it to my Google account.

  • thanks man for this great video

  • very very good video. i am impressed!

  • Does anyone know when GV comes to Canada?

  • SKYPE THE BEST

  • Thanks for all your help!! How does it take for google to respond to the invite?

  • Thanks for this video! I'm "the voice" of the system (the woman's voice you hear every time you check your messages, etc.). In any case, I think it's a great product and I'm always trying to explain what it does to friends/family...and you just did it perfectly!

    Thanks again and all the best,

    Laurie Burke

  • it only took a week and half for me to get the invite after i signed up for it

  • i just realized once u get an invite or something from google once it gets wuicker and quicker to get stuff

  • is there an app for this on the iPhone?

  • Nope. iTunes blocked the app. But if your phone is jailbroken there is a third party app called gv mobile.  It is pretty slick! Check it out. I downloaded it from cydia I believe.

  • @kagosage yeah it is from cydia still waiting for my invite.if anyone would mind share the kindness or love please message me i know this will get thumbs down and spam but please spread the love

  • Great video!

  • Great video!! 5* already subscribe!! Thanks

  • Great Info! Question what software are you using to do this presentation?

  • He uses a Mac program called ScreenFlow to make that presentation happen!

  • what is the login link to google voice

  • your gmail username

  • Yes, Google Voice sounds great, but also this is the coolest screen cast. I'm looking for screen cast software, any chance you can let me know what you used for this? I also have Final Cut Pro and would prefer Mac based software if that helps.

    Regardless, this was a REALLY NICE job of presenting this. Thanks for taking the trouble.

  • I think screenflow is really good, that's what soldierknowsbest is using right now !

  • Thanks!

  • @UK2AK im pretty sure hes using screenflow its a mac program (i think around 100 usd) allows you to record the screen and your self like he is.

  • @UK2AK macs are for pussies...i am sorry to say but it is true. they are computers for pushovers that are too expensive, takes 5 secs to hack into and give you no control on what you can do

  • @JamesC808 [Chuckle] Obviously you don't know as much about computers as you like to pretend you do.

  • Can you make out side calls to land lines in other states on google voice,

    Example If Live in NYC can I make a call to MD my friends house

  • i like this apps coz i can text family back home for free! yes it's free international messages! if i text my family back home, my carrier will charge me 20cents/mesage... i iether use my pc or my cellphone for this!...

  • man...Google is clever. Now they won't only have records of all my emails, but of all my phone conversations as well. That's their genius...release solutions so appealing that you don't care about privacy any longer... =P

  • @aicarmic With the Patriot Act, I think that I'll just take advantage of Google Voice as a great convenience feature! ...that is, once I get invited (;

  • @aicarmic thats what GCHQ does as well :P

  • @aicarmic actually the cell phone providers in Europe do the same, so for me it doesn't matter who gets my data, because some one will get it anyways. I just think that if they want my data, I want at least something that works great ;)

  • @aicarmic Exactly, and this is perfect tracking device in real time when combined with a cell

  • @AgapeTruebookDotOrg Haha...So are comments on Youtube is the funny part...

    A wealth of info at your fingertips.

  • @aicarmic

    Google bought this from another company. NOT DEVELOPED BY GOOGLE ... but still pretty good idea. The problem is that you cannot use your computer to make phone calls.

  • @aicarmic wow, paranoid much?

  • @rahmanroni Hmmm...paranoid? No. Just aware. I never alluded to being paranoid or worried about the fact that my online interactions with Google were on record.

    They are using this particular technology to improve their voice to text translation - you can even "donate" a translated voicemail to them for quality improvement purposes.

    All I was saying is that most of my communication these days involves Google's products and that most of them (now including my voice mails) are on-record.

  • @aicarmic Agreed, but just about all email/search providers record your information and emails. Yahoo, Aol, Bing etc. Heck even my local Pizza Hut keeps your Phone number and address on their records

  • @aicarmic AT&T has probably already done that anyway.

  • @aicarmic Stop being so paranoid. If you don't like google, don't use them. By the way, you are using google right now by using youtube.

  • @aicarmic who cares about your E-mails or even your conversations, i'm sorry but i'm getting sick of all those people who think that they are so politically important that all countries wanna know what you're having for dinner tomorrow.

  • @badrn13 Thats exactly why I hate and refuse to engage in social networking. It's very self important to think the masses give a rats about the meaningless little tidbits of your day.

  • @aicarmic What are you trying to hide? Terrorist!

  • @aicarmic You're absolutely right

  • hey i got one how do i invite someone else thanks!

  • Your real funny aren't you, are you looking for attention , or maybe your jealous that he's smarter then you, anyway can you come up with something thats not so dated like the N word, most blacks folks aren't even offended by it. If you're white then you're a white nigger.

  • Thanks!

  • Ok, giving someone your Google number if you don't want them to call your cell, I get it. Other than that I'm not understanding the greatness of Google Voice. Most providers include long distance and txt on their packages already, and people are using home phones less and less so I'm not sure I understand the functionality. It's nice to have your voicemail transcribed to txt but how often do you need that?

  • Comment removed

  • I Wanna Win!!!

  • when u make the call. Does it use your minutes or does google voice transfer the call to your phone for free?

  • Uses your minutes from your phone service.

  • i believe it uses your minutes because even though the service it's free it still relies on the service of a phone company.

  • US only! T_T

  • wow i got my invite within a few days heard about it on twitter.... twoogling about some phone i dont remember maybe blackberry. now i have it and dont know what to do with it yet so im still learning. i just sign up just because i could. lol ...somebody tell me what im missing out on i want to get a blackberry tour or curve.

  • It took me about a week and a half to get my invite. Well worth the wait!

  • a few weeks. hang in dare.

  • does google voice work in Canada? Would i be able to send free text messages?
