One of the reasons Yahoo Search is somewhat less trusted in the industry is because they have a paid inclusion system. In order to increase rankings to your site, all you really had to have was enough money. Very simple for people to buy rankings of some form or another. (This is all moot, of course, when Bing takes over their search).

I just received an invite to Google Voice. I've been hoping this would happen, because I think it has the potential to revolutionize the way small businesses handle their calls.

What is Google Voice? The simplest way to find out is by hearing it from Google themselves. http://www.google.com/googlevoice/about.html

But I'll highlight a few things.

Basically, the service allows you to have a virtual call center, free of charge. You get one number, from any locale you want, and you can then forward anyone who calls that number to any phone that you want.
