OLD PHONE NUMBER NEW TRICKS
There are few technologies that I've promoted as relentlessly as Google Voice. In several columns and in a video, I've lauded the service for transforming how I use my phone. Instead of having one number for your home phone, another for your office, and another for your mobile, Voice gives you a single phone number for everything. When someone calls me, the service rings all my phones (or any subset of phones, depending on a schedule I've set). Plus, you can even answer your phone in Gmail (which is really handy when you're in a place with bad cell coverage but great Internet coverage).
