And here it is… Google Talk!! Does anyone want to join me for a chat to try this thing out?

The below quote from the programs about page on Google website makes it sound useful already and it does a lot more! It seems that the rumours are true… Google will take over everything… and I am sure they will do it with a clean, neat and user friendly interface! I think that the 900kb download is quite impressive to, MSN Messenger is 8.71MB so is it 1/10th the product or is it just quality coding?!?

Your Gmail contacts are pre-loaded and the people you communicate with most often will show up in your Google Talk Friends list. You can go to your Gmail Inbox from the Google Talk interface, and you can even email your contacts directly using your Gmail account. Google Talk also does everything the Gmail Notifier used to do, and can show notifications for new messages in your Gmail account, as well as for incoming calls or chats.
