    Google Talk beta

    Well, yet another instant messaging with voice chat program has been launched. This one uses open Jabber protocols and definitely feels like an early beta. Anyway it's out there if you want to play with it: GoogleTalk

    I saw it on a different forum. Considered picking it up, decided to wait until it gets out of Beta.

    Well it uses the tested and true open-source Jabber protocol, so anyone with a real IM client (i.e. Gaim) can already connect, google has the instructions right on their page. The windows client is pretty sexy though.

    Trillian has a Jabber plugin as well. I've found it to be very unstable and predictable though. I use Pandion at work to connect to our internal Jabber server.

    Diplomacy is the art of saying "good doggie" while looking for a bigger stick.
