So recently i was contemplating getting a grandcentral.com number. I sent them an email asking if i could get a number ending in specific digits and never got a reply. Then i went to check numbers again and bam they have been bought by google. They now require that you get invited. Could some please invite me now?

Oh WOW. I really did miss that by hours. Crazy. I'll send an invite to the address in your profile.

Best answer: I've sent an invite. It's pretty rad, but don't miss out on its integration with Gizmo!

Bang. I've been using GrandCentral for a month or so now, and have totally been digging it. Now all of a sudden I feel like one of those folks who had a GMail account and could dole out invites, back in the day. When we wore onions on our belts.

Yes, that certainly was the fashion of the time.

D'oh!
This was on my to-do list this week.
Anybody else have a spare invite floating around?

Crud. Waited too long as well. Would it be unseemly to beg?
