GrandCentral?

October 12th, 2007

So, I was invited to the super-cool you’re not good enough beta for GrandCentral. I set it up today, and I am completely amazed.

This is the killer service that Google bought for a song. It is, by far, the most amazing unified communication platform I’ve encountered.

For a unique perspective, here’s some history. Me and some of my best friends tried to launch a Unified Contact Center startup in 1999. The problem then was that there was no such thing as VoIP… our ideas were best served cold using Dialogic cards.

True, we’re all doing fine now, but I can’t help but think what would have happened if VoIP would have been mainstream when we wanted to connect everyone regardless of platform, location, or bandwidth.

Oh, and in case you choose to ignore the HUGE FREAKING BANNER AD TO MY RIGHT, my new GrandCentral phone number is the super-easy-to-remember 404-492-9992.  From this point forward, this is the only new phone number I will provide.  Google, once again, you have knocked it out of the park.
