I use it every single day. I wouldn't call it dead.

We'll see if Google tries to wholly replace it with hangouts. I wouldn't be mad unless it were missing features.

Dead in the sense that there has not been feature addition one for several years, yes.

It's kept working for the last 3 years being awesome... Doesn't seem that dead to me.

I keep my 10 year old cell phone number alive and well on voice.google.com, it works great.

> Google Voice is effectively a dead product, isn't it?

Voice might be dead as a brand; Google's unification of communications trend might mean that the technology and functionality will eventually be merged into Hangouts.

Yes, Google Voice as a separate product is definitely going away. Its functionality will be subsumed by Hangouts, but nothing about that transition is clear to users.
