		<description>I reserved my Google Voice number a couple days ago (or whenever it went officially public), and have been wondering how I could put it to good use. Sharing it with clients—who would get their own voice mail greeting—is not a bad idea. It&#039;s a great idea. 

One other thought I had today would be for a client web project that Ron and I will be releasing any day now (future blog post!). The &quot;client&quot; is sort of a quasi organization within another nonprofit, but doesn&#039;t yet have the infrastructure set up to handle inquiries from clients. Google Voice would allow us to advertise a unique number for clients to call, which would then route to a handful of people who will be sharing the responsibility of fielding those inquiries. This would allow us to bypass the parent nonprofit, which really doesn&#039;t need to be in the mix. 

I tested GV out this afternoon and was impressed with: A) receiving a link to the voicemail via email; and B) receiving a text on my cell phone with a partial transcript of of the voicemail. Cool stuff.</description>
