Just a quick video from College Humor on Microsoft’s new search engine – Bing.

Bing is about the best alternative to Google, but it’s not Google.

paidContent.org (I like how the chose to capitalize the C but not the p) is reporting in a story by Joseph Tartakoff that Google’s Lead Designer, or Design Lead, rather is headed to Twitter.

Only a few days ago I as whining on Faceboook about how GrandCentral’s future was uncertain.

I am in the process of making some changes to some of the aspects of my business that would be a lot easier if GrandCentral was in operation. A move that I am terrified to make if GrandCentral were to go under in a few months.

It appears that I have nothing to worry about as this article points out on Webware. GrandCentral is being reborn with the Google name attached. Google Voice may not be exactly the same as GrandCentral, but that may be a good thing. GrandCentral was not the easiest service to figure out, but it was robust in features.

Let’s hope the new Google Voice keeps the ability to forward calls to any phone, offers live voice mail, and provides cool options like the ability to record calls.

Best of all, they plan to keep it free for a while.
