Google Voice
Finally set up a Google Voice number tonight, eager to try the recording feature. Maiden call had to go to The Information, as he lived up to his name by answering yet another question of mine with “Google has that,” when I asked him if it was possible to record calls. Overall a great success, the playback was crystal clear, with Cliffe sounding as if he was in the room. Fun side note of the evening: Tooth coined a phrase. When we first called his brother there was no answer, and Tooth bet on CoCo being at dance class. “I’ll bet my bottomest of dollars,” says Tooth. I once again looked to the great Google and searched “bottomest of dollars.” Since nothing came up, obviously he was the first person ever to say it, Google would have told me otherwise. And Google doesn’t lie. The fun part now is to start incorporating the word bottomest into everyday conversation. I think if enough of us start to do it, we can probably convince the dictionary people to make it a real word in a few years.
