Vocito Quicksilver and Addressbook Grandcentral plugin goes live
Google's Grand Central has had a somewhat slow start, especially on the Mac platform. Today, however, Google's Mac Labs have unveiled Vocito...
Vocito is a desktop UI for GrandCentral for the Mac. It allows you to easily dial anybody from your desktop. Using GrandCentral it will dial the remote phone and your local phone simultaneously, and connect you together.

It integrates into Address Book, Quicksilver, Automater, system services, supports "tel" URLs, and is fully AppleScriptable.

All this integration makes it easy to have Vocito automatically dial your phone from just about any application that supports scripting, html, or Automator actions. For example, you can easily set up your iCal meeting appointment to automatically dial the conference call for you at the correct time.
Vocito also allows you to save little applets that will automatically dial the phone for you with a simple double click.
Since GrandCentral is currently in a limited beta, we don't have any more invites to hand out right now. So those of you without a GrandCentral number don't get to play just yet, but please reserve your number now to get in on the action as soon as more invites become available.
Vocito is available here for download. It works on Tiger and Leopard, is both PowerPC and Intel native, and is fully open sourced. There is a discussion group at vocito-discuss on Google Groups, and an FAQ. If you need help using Vocito, check out our ever growing documentation page at VocitoHelp. If you can't find what you are looking for, please post to vocito-discuss and we'll get back to you ASAP.
