Google Plans Free VoIP In the UK
jarich writes "According to this news article, Google may be preparing to offer free Voice Over IP telephone service in the UK.
This sounds related to a previous Slashdot article about Google starting to buy dark fiber.
So what are they planning? A free service like Skype (computer to computer only) or more along the lines of Lingo or Vonage?"
There's a 32 word limit per call.
They're going to voice scan your calls and every 5 minutes there will be an interruption by a commercial.
"Hey Bob, how's that car working for ya'?"
*beep beep*
"Come on down to Steve's auto extravaganza!!! We will NOT be oversold!"
I just wish I was smart enough to get a job with them
I think you mean, "I just wish I were smart enough to get a job with them" ;)
Yes, in fact I just checked their site, and their
"Do no evil"
slogan had
"...yet, be patient my pretty ones. Har ha ha ha har."
appended to it in bloood red letters that faded as I watched...
I wonder what it means?
"I've got more toys than Teruhisa Kitahara."
Just press * on your phone to replace a few common words :)
yes, kind of I'm talking with my GirlFriend, and five seconds after I say "Of course I love you" a popup with a dating website appears on my screen... :-(

People replying to my sig annoy me. That's why I change it all the time.
