Goolel seems the real competitor of Google Voice, it covers almost all the features of GV except the VoIP calls. Goolel should go for WiFi calling options like Truphone or Vopium, this will make it perfect application. Goolel is a Gurgaon based startup that is trying to build a meta social network (and more) on your mobile phone. Once you download the app, you can configure all your IMs, push mail services (Gmail/Yahoo and Hotmail) as well as use Goolel’s India focused chat rooms.
Goolel has also built a browser of its own, which it claims to optimize web pages by a significant percentage and startup’s advisory board includes veterans from BSNL, UTStarcomm and Unisys. While all this may sound fancy, I am not sure whether people are ready to try out new social networks or whether Goolel should instead position itself as a meta push mail/IM service (the space is anyways crowded with Fring, Mig33 etc). The only uptake that I see is startups’ relationship with operators/telecom companies (advisory board speaks of that) – will help them in closing deals with operators. Source..
