YouMail: Voicemail, Fully Customized

WHAT IT IS:
YouMail is a free service that forwards incoming calls on your phone to its voicemail management system. Your Carrier voicemail isn't deleted just bypassed.

Voicemails/VM Transcripts are then accessible with your phone, PC, email, or text. For Blackberry users, you can download a free visual voicemail App (Beta version still). All other phone users can see their visual voicemail via m.youmail.com from your phone's browser.

WHY ITS COOL: (demo video)
1. Visual Voicemail - online, in e-mail, or on the phone
2. Voice-to-Text - read your voicemails as text messages or e-mail
3. Voicemail Filtering - goodbye telemarketers and ex's
4. Smart Greetings - different greetings for family, friends and clients

GET IT:
1. Sign up at Youmail.com
2. Upload your contacts (via phone or from your computer)
3. Categorize your contacts into groups
4. Assign the Greetings each person gets (you can record greetings from your phone by dialing 714.204.3114, option 01).

It took 30 minutes for us to set up 250 contacts and assign greetings.
