So I just came across this sweet service that will let me sign up for a phone number just about anywhere in the USA for free.
What it does: Once you signup for the account and select the phone number you want you can have that phone number automatically forward to all of the other phones you have... IE: cell phone, home phone, office phone.
This is nice if you are temporarily living in another area and you dont want to change your cell phone number and you want a local number.
Some other nice features listed on their website:
* Check your messages by phone, email, or online
* Keep all your messages online for eternity
* Record and store your phone calls (just like voicemail)
* Quickly (and secretly) block an annoying caller
* Click-to-dial from your address book
* Surprise your callers with a custom voicemail greeting
* Forward, download, and add notes to your messages
I am not affiliated with them in anyway, I just thought it was a cool service so I thought I would share it.
Its free, at least for now.
