Google Voice 欲进驻Gmail 并暂停国际短信功能

从2010年6月1日起,就不断有国外用户发现 Google Voice 已经停掉了国际短信功能。此外 Google Operation System 博客透露了另一个消息是 Google Voice 将作为 VoIP 服务整合进 Gmail

很多资深 Google Voice 用户对谷歌关停国际短信的做法颇有微词。而谷歌官方对此解释为,“Google Voice 从来没有正式的支持过国际短信功能,虽然很多用户早就开始用这个功能。尽管如此,对于一些曾经支持国际短信功能的目的地国家,我们必须积极的阻止这个功能,直到我们可以对该功能进行收费。”

谷歌官方同时透露,“我们正在制定一个综合的国际短信费率,这项计划很快就会推出并且价格将会非常的低。请大家耐心等待。”

Google Voice 是由谷歌推出的一种电话服务,能够将个人所用的众多电话号码集中成为一个号码,同时提供许多加值服务,并且从2009年6月开始邀请一些志愿者参与实验。

基本上,Google Voice 的服务就是以一个谷歌提供给用户免费电话号码,或是自己付费指定的号码,来整合用户生活当中所有会接触到的电话,如家里、办公室、手机等。

Google 正在测试一个让 Gmail 聊天更实用的功能:用户将可以直接在 Gmail 的弹出对话框里拨打或接听 Google Voice 电话。Gmail 聊天窗口里会出现一个新的带数字键盘的电话窗口,在这里你还可以查找联系人、查询余额并直接接听或拨打电话。

现在官方只支持使用安装了 Google Voice 应用的手机拨打 Google Voice 电话(不过有不少第三方应用可以让你在电脑上拨打或接听 Google Voice 电话),如果整合进 Gmail 那显然会吸引更多的用户。今年4月 TechCrunch 曾经爆料说 Google 内部正在测试一个 Google Voice 的客户端,不过目前还没有任何发布的消息。

Gmail的肚儿是杂货铺儿,Google想强推什么就可以往Gmail里塞,好不自在……

谷歌在 Google Voice 官方网站上提供了短片说明:“当有人打电话给你,而且他们不必考虑该打家里的号码、办公室的号码,还是手机。而拥有谷歌号码的你,可以决定哪支电话该响。”

Google Voice 的前身实际是GrandCentral,去年被谷歌买下。Google Voice 保留了很多GrandCentral原有服务,当然还加入了一些新的功能。

1、这是用户在 Google Voice help forum 反映的问题原文(点击此处看原文):

international sms messages

Do you already have Google Voice (Y/N)?
If so, do you have a Google number (Y/N)?

Post your question or report below (please include specific details and error messages, if applicable):

I have been sending international sms messages with my google voice number for months via my iphone and via the web (https://www.google.com/voice). Now the service has stopped working.

Anyone know why?

2、以下是谷歌职员有关 Google Voice 停掉国际短信的官方解释:

Vincent Paquet – Google Employee

All,

International SMS has never been officially supported by Google Voice but enough users started using it nonetheless for certain destinations where it worked that we had to actively prevent it until we can bill for it. We are working on a comprehensive international SMS coverage, which we plan to make available at very low prices soon.

Thank you for your patience.

Gmail 将允许用户关闭会话组群模式

最近有传言Google 将有可能允许用户关闭 Gmail 的创新功能——会话组群。

会话组群模式可以说是电邮服务的一大创新,Gmail 可自动把一系列的邮件整合成一“会话组群”,这样就能方便使用户看回早前邮件的內容,不用花费时间找回早前其他的回复。如回邮件件包含引用早前邮件的內容,Gmail 更会預先隐藏,让用户选择是否观看之前的回复。

这是一个非常实用的功能,为 Gmail 吸引了大量的新用户,包括以前使用类似 Outlook 邮件客户端的用户。难道真的会有人讨厌这项功能,而宁愿关闭它?如果传言是真的,Google 大概是打算吸引“更传统”的用户,上了船后,再慢慢将一些新功能推广给他们。

还有一个好消息是 Gmail 官方推出了帽衫,这是 Google 为了庆祝 Gmail 在去年终于摘掉了 beta 的帽子,而决定推出的纪念品,就是一件帽衫,不过不是免费的,在 Google Store 销售,只有灰色款,价格41.75美元,贵得离谱。


有些人拜访 Google 总部的时候,往往会在他们的商店里也买了一件印有 Gmail 的衣服……

Gmail now requires verification of forwarding addresses when using filters or autoforwarding

When setting up a new filter that forwards email or auto-forwarding email to a specific email address, you now need to also verify that you actually have permission to forward to that address. This is similar to verifying addresses for the ‘custom from’ feature.

There are exemptions to this change: Premier and Education edition users will not need to verify forwarding addresses that are:
- in their own domain
- in a subdomain of their own domain
- in a domain alias configured as part of the Google Apps account

Editions included:
Standard, Premier, Education and Partner Editions

Languages included:
All languages supported by Gmail

How to access what’s new:
- Premier and Education Editions: If you are forwarding email to an address that does not come under the three categories above, then you will need to verify that address and a verification email will be sent to that address.
Email lists: If the list comes under the three categories, then verification isn’t required.

- Standard and Partner Editions: When setting up forwarding via a filter or autoforwarding, you will receive a verification email to the address that you are forwarding to.
Email lists: A user will have to verify that they have permission to forward to that list just like any other address and a verification email will be sent to the list. If the user has read access to the list, they’ll be able to get the confirmation code and verify the auto-forward address.

- Email Settings API: This API also allows forwarding to be configured. If the address being forwarded to does not need verification as outlined in the categories above, then this will work as expected. If the address requires verification and has not been verified, this setting will fail.
