Google Talk

Google Talk is Google's new IM client and was officially launched tonight. It's available for download right now! I just downloaded it and then realized, I don't know a soul who has it, so someone download it and talk to me dammit. My username is faisels[at]gmail.com.

You need a gmail account I believe in order to sign in. If by some chance you don't have one yet and need one, send me an e-mail at that same address and I'll send you an invitation.

You can also make free voice calls to other Google Talk users, which is set to possibly put a big dent in skype and the others offering that service. One thing I've found out though is this only works for people who are on Windows machines. Mac people are using iChat and, for now, there's no way to voice call them.

Yes, we promise to update the site soon.
