Ryan Whitwam

Google and Sprint got together in 2011 to offer a fully integrated Google Voice experience on the carrier. You could place calls with your Sprint number but have all the benefits of Google Voice like call forwarding to multiple numbers, voicemail transcriptions, call recording, and so on.

Scott Scrivens

[Update: Fixed] Google thinks the Home Mini is a 'Vintage Retro Biscuit Tin'

Scott Scrivens

"Ok Google, remind me to fill you up with chocolate hobnobs."
