Two phone related freebies
I found these two phone-related freebies in the Bottom Line Personal newsletter, which contains a lot of interesting tidbits about a wide range of topics.
The first is Trapcall.com, which enables you to find out who called you, even if they called from a blocked line, and to block unwanted callers. The service has other features as well.

The newsletter also mentioned Google Voice, which will soon be available to the general public for free as well. Google describes Voice as a service that "gives you one number for all your phones, voicemail that is easy as email, and many enhanced calling features like call blocking and screening, voicemail transcripts, call conferencing, international calls, and more." If you provide your e-mail, Google will notify you when the free service is available. For more information about Google Voice, go here.
