Google Acquires Telecom Technology
GrandCentral now is officially part of Google. Another acquisition that assures Google are getting into some telecom kind of world. GrandCentral is not a phone manufacturer but builds services above it. It basically ties all your phone numbers to one number. A number that will be tied to you for the rest of your life. You will no longer need a name or ID, just your phone number :) (Well the last part is a bit visionary). The service also allows you to check your messages by phone, email or online, and it adds other services on top of that as well.
So what do you think? Google will acquire wireless spectrum and… be a telecom service provider, launch with a service that will give you one number for all, offer discounted rates in exchange of SMS delivered ads, browse for FREE in exchange of delivered ads, get infinite GMail size and get messages on your phone, email or online. But wait, there is more. How about their affiliation with Apple? The possibilities are basically endless, and there definitely is something going behind the scenes.
So what does GrandCentral think about the acquisition? They seem to just love it.

3baid: Yeah, best company and strongest brand. Stock prices that drives you to be a millionaire. I can’t see why I wouldn’t want to join them.
But to be honest, few months back I’d do anything (and I tried few things) to get inside their complex. Now I have different plans and responsibilities, I will have second thought :O
Yes, and sooner or later, Google will acquire you and everyone else too!! Bwahahaha!!!
