    I'll wait for Google to upload all of the earth's data onto an orbital escape vehicle before I get really worried.

    @Kaiser-Machead: There will be 2 ships. The first ship will carry all the hair dressers and lawyers, etc. The second ship will leave soon after, we promise.

    Yes, the hairdressers pull double-duty. Plus their curling irons also get used as hot sammich presses..

    Oh, sure, Google would love for all of us to think that the securing of these numbers is all part of the planning phase for Google Voice... but I know the truth.


    You see, in all reality, Google has built a death ray (titled GoogleRay[beta]) which is powered by phone numbers. With every new secured phone number, it only grows stronger. It is up to us, all of us, to gather and fight before it can not be stopp--

    @Dilpickle1:

    Google has managed to cultivate the air of some kind of creepy, nebulous information overlord about it. Exciting as Google Voice is as a product, I do hope some real competition crops up soon. I'd hate to see Google dominate yet another market's worth of data.
