Will You Be One of Google Voice's Million?

Monday June 22, 2009
Many are impatiently waiting for Google Voice to go public and give out numbers for life. To recap: when Google Voice launched, taking over from GrandCentral, the service opened solely for existing GrandCentral customers, and we members of the public were asked to wait. Some are even going to Google's site to check everyday. However acute be your zeal, that is not necessary, as you can submit your email address for an invitation when the service goes public.

Google recently reserved 1 million phone numbers with Level 3, which has been supplying phone numbers to them since the beginning of the Google Voice service. The sources did not mention the purpose of grasping that many numbers, but this could suggest a considerable expansion of the Google Voice database. So, will you and me have a place in there? I don't know whether I should wonder on whether invitations have reached the million, or on how many millions have requested invitation.
