GMail users made more than 10 million calls through the web-based email service’s new ‘Call Phones’ feature during its first week of availability, Google announced yesterday.
Since August 25, Google has been allowing users to make free VoIP calls to landline and cellular phones within the U.S. and Canada. Calls outside of North America start at just $0.02 per minute.
The service can be integrated with Google Voice, allowing Google’s existing VoIP users to have their personal web-based phone numbers displayed as their caller ID. Other features include call screening and the ability to record conversations and send them to a GMail inbox.
