Technobabbles I try to sound like I know what I'm talking about. Don't be fooled.

GrandCentral Introduces Shared Forwarding Numbers

I don't talk about it much, but I use GrandCentral as my phone number. It works great, since I don't actually have a cell phone or landline of my own. Google gives me a number that will "never" change (it will if they discontinue the service...) and that rings all the phones I have access to... or none at all. One peeve I had, though, is that neither of my parents could sign up for the service (if they wanted to, that is) because our house phone is in my account. That's just changed.

Apparently, the announcement was made yesterday, though I missed it. It must be because I checked my feeds in the morning, and the entry was posted in the late evening. Despite the fact that I missed the announcement (and that I haven't been posting lately, another story), GrandCentral now officially lets you share a forwarding number in different accounts.
