Android and google voice perfect combo for communcation.

Most of the time you love what Android offers and all the smart phones features. But something always bug when you receive unwanted calls from telemarketers at odd hours (for that matter known people you want to avoid)

Here is the step to block them or send them to voicemail etc...

You must have following to do it (everything is FREE)

1. You must have Gmail account.

2. Enter contact number you want to block in gmail "contact"

3. Now go to www.google.com/voice - Click on Contacts --> select number you want to block on right hand side.

4. Now click on "Edit Google Voice Settings" --> Now in new page you will have options under
"When this contact calls you" with combobox with "Send to voicemail", "Treat as spam", "block caller". Once you set this you don't have to worry about any idiots calling you number of times a day.

Also you want to register you phone in no call registry but sometime that doesn't work but above will work for specific numbers for sure.
