Google Talk (Beta)
Posted by d3bruts1d on August 24, 2005 at 2:25 am

Google’s newest service, Google Talk (Beta), is now available for download. Or you can connect to it via Gaim, Trillian, or another multi IM client as long as you have a Google/GMail account. At the moment, Trillian and GAIM are giving me errors when trying to connect.

As many people have speculated over the past months, Google Talk is a Jabber/XMPP based client that allows you talk (voice) and Instant Message your friends. Plans to support SIP are slated for a future release.

Google’s client itself, a 900KB download, is pretty simplistic if not a bit childish looking. I’m sure there will be plug-ins released for it in typical Google fashion. :P

More information about Google Talk is available here.

About d3bruts1d.com
d3bruts1d.com is my [d3bruts1d] collection of news, rants, and random thoughts relating to the subjects Technology, Gaming, Entertainment, and just about everything else. This place is in no way meant to be considered a serious or professional news blog, in fact anyone who attempts to take it as such should probably seek professional psychiatric help immediately. It's here so that I can share with other people the things that interest me. If you're here, then hopefully you share similar interest. If we have nothing in common, then I have but one question for you, "why on God's green Earth are you here?" If you happen to be as messed up as I am, feel follow me on Plurk, FriendFeed, or any of other of the many social networks and websites I'm on.
