Verizon & Google Voice

I’ve been using Google Voice for about a week now, and I thought I’d share a few things I’ve learned along the way, things related to using Google Voice with Verizon Wireless. I wanted and hadn’t seen any resources out there regarding the Verizon + Google Voice duo, so I figured I’d put one together. This is a compilation of various things I’ve found on the Google Voice forums and from other sites.


Overview (easy navigation):

-Calling – In or Out of Network?

-Contacts & New Phone Number Issues

-Texting

-Voicemail and Using Google Voice Without Changing Your Number


For those of you who haven’t heard, Google has released a (free) phone management system called Google Voice. This is currently open by invitation only. Sign up here if you’re interested. Google Voice allows you to have all of your phones ring, during the times you’ve set, when somebody calls your Google Voice number… and a lot more. Opposed to rattling off all the GV features, I’ll let you check out the video Google has posted (see below). It gives you a pretty good overview.
