VentureBeat: Google buys GrandCentral phone service

  • Del · 2 years ago
    A complement to this service is Masque Numbers. When you sell your car or you're dating online, or even when you feel tempted to give away your phone number online on YouTube or MySpace... are you going to give your unique lifetime phone number?

    Certainly not! You give away a Kleenex number, a Masque Number that you control (same main options as GrandCentral) and that you can drop at any time.
    Google is right to go after mobile advertizing, and trying to control people's phone numbers.
    A Masque Number is the antidote. The same way you have a junk email address for spam.
