Google getting into's Skype's business.

When I'm on my computer, I live in Google. GMail, Google Reader, Google Docs, Google News, you name it.  Google's got me. 

My "published" phone number is a Google Voice number.  Now today that starts to become even more useful.

Google is now getting into the voice-over-IP (VOIP) phone service.  From your GMail account (or Google Voice account) you can call any phone number in the US.  Just like Skype.  Except with Google, its free.
