I don't have any use for it currently, but the possibilities intrigue me. Wezlo said he could see linking his church's phone to his Google Voice account and putting the widget on his church's website. In addition, I could see it being useful if you have a podcast; you could direct the widget straight to voicemail. However, I'm curious how long-distance charges might apply (since the widget dials your GV number and the user's phone, maybe long distance charges wouldn't apply at all...hmm...). What is also interesting is the idea that we can use GV to make long-distance calls from the landline even though we don't have a long-distance service.

I got an invite also, on July 9, and signed up for it. I haven't used it much, other than to give the new number to a few people, who still use the old number. I may use it more now. Cool review.
