Google’s handing out phone numbers through their GrandCentral beta program. Some of the features their service has are Call Screening, ListenIn, (Hear why someone is calling before taking the call), Call Record, Block Callers, and email and SMS notifications of voicemails. They way it works is you are given a phone number based on the area you would like and can add up to 3 physical phone numbers to that parent number. Then you can setup which phone you want to ring based on who’s calling you. For example you may have friends and family routed to ring your home and cell phone. You can have work ring just your cell phone, and any unknown or specific number just go directly to voicemail. I haven’t given it a good try yet but will post more information after testing the service.

I also have 10 beta invites so let me know if you’d like to give it a try.
