Google Voice Opens to All (US)

Good news! No more invites needed!

According to the google voice blog, you can head on over to the google voice site to sign up for the service – no more waiting for invites to come, or hunting around for them on the internet.

It’s still only open to those in the US, so check out the Howto: Google Voice in Canada post to see how to get access to the service from outside the US. This process should also work for other countries, and isn’t restricted to just working in Canada.

A little over a year ago, we released an early preview of Google Voice, our web-based platform for managing your communications. We introduced one number to ring all your phones, voicemail that works like email, free calls and text messages to the U.S. and Canada, low-priced international calls and more—the only catch was you had to request and receive an invite to try it out. Today, after lots of testing and tweaking, we’re excited to open up Google Voice to the public, no invitation required.
