Google Voice, Free calling within the US and Canada through 2013

The Gmail Team has confirmed that Google Voice will provide free calling within the US and Canada through 2013.

Many of you call phones from Gmail to easily connect with friends and family. If you’re in the US and Canada, you’ll continue to be able to make free domestic calls through 2013. Plus, in most countries, you can still call the rest of the world from Gmail at insanely low rates.

We here rely on Google Voice for our day to day operation and we are glas that Google is providing this service for free*. For that we thank Google.

* We are aware that Google is monetizing the free service in one way or another.

Yet another Text Spam, (562) 314-8316.

I’ve got another Text Spam and this time is from (562) 314-8316.

I have been filing complaints to FCC and unfortunately they ruled that such Text Spam did not violate any of their rules. I’ll get to that in the future.
