Google Acquires Gizmo5

Story @ techcrunch

Wow. This is pretty interesting news. Google Voice is a great phone service without a phone. Gizmo5 adds the pieces of a phone service that Google Voice lacks, and it does it quite well too. As soon as I get some more time, I’ll try to tie my Google Voice account in with a new Gizmo5 number. I only had limited success with this before, but hopefully this will increase compatibility.

In the slightly longer term, this could potentially mean nearly free VOIP google voice service.
