One Number to Rule Them All!

Granted, I don’t really have enough people that call me to make this worthwhile, but I find the idea oddly compelling nonetheless…

David Pogue on GrandCentral.com:

“And when you switch your job, cellphone carrier or home city, you have to notify everyone you know that you have new phone numbers.

A new service called GrandCentral, now in its final weeks of public beta testing, solves all of these problems. It’s a rather brilliant melding of cellphone and the Internet.

Its motto, “One number for life,” pretty much says it all. At GrandCentral.com, you choose a new, single, unified phone number (more on this in a moment). You hand it out to everyone you know, instructing them to delete all your old numbers from their Rolodexes.”

One Number That Will Ring All Your Phones
