In other news, Google is launching a free phone service called Google Voice. Perhaps this is their monetization strategy.

And so is facebook too, donchaknow? Given that HN attracts all the smartest people who would probably figure this stuff out, I'd wager that pg is really a CIA operative. In fact, I suspect Microsoft is as well. I mean, if you are the NSA, what better way is there of looking at everyone's personal, electronic data?
