Nice. I’ve been using GrandCentral for a few months, and I love it. A SPAM box for telemarketers? Wonderful! My biggest fear was, if they go out of business, what would I do? Looks like I don’t have to worry about that now …

Deal is Confirmed: Google Acquired GrandCentral

Google has confirmed the Grand Central Acquisition we suspected would be confirmed soon. No official word on a price, but we believe it’s in the $50 million range. Google will be moving the service over to Google’s network. A limited number of invitations for GrandCentral beta accounts will still be available. If you have a U.S. telephone number, you can sign up for an invitation at www.grandcentral.com. Current GrandCentral customers will continue to have uninterrupted access to the service.

Wow, and I thought the line we had for Episode I in front of the Coronet was awesome (I mean, we had a tent and someone brought a couch!)

7-Elevens Converted to Kwik-E-Marts for The Simpsons Movie « FirstShowing.net

Everyone knows what the Kwik-E-Mart is and where it’s from, and with the upcoming Simpsons Movie hitting screens in less than a month, Fox is going all out to make sure we’re reminded of The Simpsons everywhere we go. The latest promotion they’ve put together is a nearly complete conversion of a number of 7-11 gas stations into Kwik-E-Marts, and I mean complete. The first photos have appeared online over at Flickr, and they’ve done a pretty good job of converting the place. Take a look at what is the first real life Kwik-E-Mart!
