give it a try, it's quite swanky

voice quality's pretty nice too

(if you need a gmail account give me a bell)

GMail, been a while since I logged in, and I noticed:

You are currently using 592 MB (23%) of your 2525 MB.

Oops.

Woo, got googletalk this morning, non of my friends have it yet though (and they don't have gmail account anyway) ... so it's a bit pointless for now..

hopefully it'll be picked up quite quickly

i've been pimping it all evening

meh, it really doesn't offer anything that AIM or MSN don't offer, and it lacks a lot of stuff AIM and MSN do.

But Google rocks, I support them 100%!

Its still in its first beta so its not gonna match up to MSN 7 just yet but the interface is very clean compared to MSN

I just don't see the point of another IM service, other than "Hey, it's google! I've got to have it!" I mean, I use only google for searching the web, but really I don't need google for everything.

i for one love the idea of suporting google in their quest for an online monopoly even though it will in no way benefit my life

Ooooh looks interesting, and I like the way it integrates with gmail.

I shall fuck about with it later, but I doubt I'll use it much

Better sound quality.

And FREE! Not much use within the 5punk world due to the TS server, but good all the same

I use the service via my Mac Jabber client, not that I know anyone on it.
