pBack in the days of the Cold War, intelligence analysts would pour over cryptic statements and publicly released photos published in the Soviet-run newspapers to gain clues as to the real state of affairs behind the Iron Curtain.nbsp;Today, observers are forced to do the same thing to make educated guesses on what Google is doing with GrandCentral./p

Vocito enables users to easily dial anyone from their desktop, utilizing GrandCentral to dial a remote phone and a local phone simultaneously to connect people together.
