Google Voice Launched , Skype Take a Deep Breath

Google's new internet telephone service would allow its Gmail users to call Landlines and Mobile phones from their email inbox , thereby putting Google in direct competition with Skype. It uses Gmail as an interface and optionally can integrate with Google Voice to receive calls as well.

Skype Vs GVoice

To attract new users calls to US/Canada would be free for the rest of the year initially. Calls to other countries will be as low as 2 cents per minute, and will not include a connection fee. Google is very smart at what they do. The question is will Google would able to wipe out Skype or not?

The Key features are when somebody calls on your mobile, your computer would rang as well. Google Voice also allows all voice messages to be turned into text which will then be sent either through an e-mail or an sms. Transcribe voice-mails and convert it into text and put it in your inbox so that it's searchable and you will always have a record of that voicemail.

Google pleasantly tweeted on Thursday announcing that 1 Million users called on the day of launched of the service. Google has huge resources but it's too early to celebrate the success; and also to take into account Skype users are tremendously Loyal. Lets see the Price War which is soon about to start would lead to something.....but whatever is the outcome the users gonna love their cheap calls.

Dec 2012 : Awaken, Empower, Ascend

Lots have been said & told about Mayan Prophecy which says Dec, 21, 2012 is the day when the earth changes to see it's end and that it happens every cycle of 26,556 years.

Let's say all of it is true , then what we do to tackle the situation,I know we cannot do anything to change it so what else, some would do things they always wanted to do, some would start worshiping god, some would start exploring things, etc. etc.. the point is, who is stopping you, to do it right now! , all of this because some prophecy has given a date for the end of this world i.e. preposterous. If you agree to the above statement then you have become a machine my friend working and reacting on a particular time and date. Don't worry this is the case with majority of us.

I personally think this whole 2012 story is a Marketing wash, I recommend not to fall for it and just see it as a transition where we might experience a change only for good. 2012 is just a date there is nothing to fear and worry about the so called “doomsday or mass exit” hypocrisy, these things are purposely created to develop fear among people ; then to cash on that fear factor. The businessman, so called religion gurus, have mastered that art and can do it with their eyes closed.

I recommend Live Life ; as you are Born Daily. When you woke up tomorrow thank god for an additional day in your life, do the things you always wanted to do complete them as you would be dead tomorrow , in the night party like you are dying tomorrow. I know this is an unusual case but if we try to implement 10% of it we would be an happy individual.

I know this story is out of context, but really want to add it ; if a single person is awaken by reading it I would feel blessed.

God Bless Us ALL!
