Google Talk.


Google Talk is here. This nifty new feature from the Google Labs allows instant messaging and voice calls to other Google Talk members. A Gmail account is required for Google Talk. The good news is that Google Talk is compatible with Gaim and Trillian. However, the voice calling feature only works if you're using the actual Google Talk software. Google Talk is beta, like Google and Gmail, (isn't anything Google does ever out of beta?) but works fine for me.
A very enterprising individual I know has figured out how to hack the Jabber/Google Talk relationship to skirt corporate AIM blocking. Google to the rescue once again.

You're right, Google is crazy with the betas! Who do they think they're fooling, trying to pull R&D money out of investors?

I wish Google would hurry up and get their tranports up for Talk to communicate with the other IM services.
