I hate voicemail! We only have cell phones and my number is the contact for everything, so I get all the voicemail messages for the household. I get so much and some of it is junk. I hate having to call up and listen to every freaking message. I can't tell you why it overwhelms me so much. It's weird because I have no problem managing email or texts. I actually prefer them.

I know my professors have a service/ system/ program that sends their messages to their email in a sound byte file. I think this is done through the university system. Does anyone know of a program that will sent your voice mail to your email? I have sprint for cell service and gmail for email and am pretty happy with both. TIA!

It only took 2-3 weeks for our invite to Google Voice to come through. That was about 2 months ago :) Haven't used it yet, but would LOVE to know what other users think of it!

But it's set up through our ISP - optimum. We have it set to go to both my email and DH plus my gmail. It's been a lifesaver multiple times and allows me to return calls on my lunch hour vs waiting til i get home.
