OK. I just got my Google Voice invite (woot?). I signed up for it over a month ago at the insistence of several of my younger IT co-workers and friends. The way they’ve described it, it will revolutionize how “you” use the phone… Hmm, where have I heard that one before? Even after watching the informational video on the Google Voice website, I’m still not entirely sure why I need it. But sounds cool. And I like Google.

And now I have it, so I will try it out and see what happens. So far, I’m having problems just trying to get their dialer app to install on my BlackBerry Storm. I suspect it has something to do with a lack of storage. :-)

Here are some of their videos on YouTube:
