Update (8/2/09): I did find some unofficial info about the google voice api. I still want more, but if you want to send sms and place calls, it can be done. Unofficial API docs
Google voice is the newly integrated grandcentral.com, which google bought long ago for the core technology. Google voice is awesome. Same great features, plus many more. I’m loving the SMS feature. You can interact with your friends via sms through google’s web interface. It is like gmail 160 characters at a time. Threading, search, etc.
Now I want that bought to XMPP. Imagine having a feature that allowed you to receive and send sms through your IM client, to contacts that are already on your list. I’ve used other service to take SMS’s to IM before (AOL has had this for years, and iChat use this directly) But this would be transparent to the person you are talking to. They would see the SMS coming from your google voice number (which there is talk of porting numbers to google voice). It would be as if you replied from your phone.
Tie in some features to only send to IM when I’m present, otherways forward to my phone, and I think we have a great feature. Google, please create a google voice api, and we will have features like this.
I have started a windows mobile app that does the dialing AND the SMS. You can see it here:

I had this same idea, work in progress, the source code will be available once it has been tidied up a bit.

Thanks for the API link. Do you think it is unlawful to build into an application the ability to send SMS using Google Voice (because it is free)? If this is doable its a serious boon to SMS based startup technologies.
There is a C# Google Voice API… there is limited documentation, however the download has an application that 'works' using the API that is included:

I love Google Voice. There SMS feature really got me into it. I am able to send out free text messages to Bangladesh, India, and USA. It saves me good money on my texting plan from Verizon Wireless because I can use that to text. I think Google always does a very job of giving customers what they require and need. I have discovered in the future they are incorporating Voice with the Android. Plus they purchased a new VoIP company which they will incorporate with the other two to give some excellent features. I need to get myself an Androind now haha.
