I've been using Google Talk for the past two days,
and i'm very satisfied.
The chat is easy, but of course, somewhat limited. (Which google has announced will change over time)
The call function is very good too. The sound quality is great. (If both got good mics, that is)
And the lag is minimal.
And since i use gmail alot, i found this to be very nice integrated.
I can't say anything but, Yes, gimme more google products.

Never used any other Googleproducts than its search engine, and I probably won't either.
I'm waiting for GoogleOS, it must be the worlds fastest OS, must have

Can we have a new poll. Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
Something thats interesting.
Perhaps the end result will mean something and be enforced.
I vote for a poll that asks.
Should the ladies of the site post pictures of them in their bikini's?? Yes
No
Dont care
Want to see results
It would get alot of attention.
I wish G talk would allow you to send files or pictures though it

I might just agree. Given the latest developments... an invite only email system with a huge amount of space that seems too good to be true, meant to bring in the people by the hoards. A satellite system "available for everyone" that potentially has many a naughty use and now this, an IM system. A bit smelly, no?
I don't want to sound like my aim is to spread paranoya, but consider this:
Information is power, what would you do, if you wanted to gain an upper hand on everything an every one. Get insider trading information perhaps? You would offer an information service, establish a trusty base and begin abusing it. By now, google is widely known for their ideals of IT development and ease of use together with strict privacy policies and rules about advertising. If they abuse it or not, I guess only they know...
A conspiracy-theorist view upon their email service:
You want to gain useful information, right, so you need many people, especially important people, who are connected to different business-politics organizations or what not. The invites. Your average internet granny cannot sign up and send emails about cake recipies. Instead you get a group, expodentially expanding, of "smart people". How to attract those people: the huge space given. And that space has one more advantage. They do not have to keep track of emails, that they wish to "overview". Spam gets deleted by the users anyway and who would delete an important message when you have 1gb storage space available?
We can all agree, that google is the most influential and most used website on the internet. Even a shallow look onto search histories could make you a millionaire if you know how to use it right.
Anyway, on a more casual note, i voted "IM is one step too far" on the poll. Google OS sounds weird to me. It is worth considering how Your google mail address, searches and from now on, instant messages could actually be (ab)used.
If its such an important mail, I'm sure they wouldn't use a third-party mailserver.. Get a grip on yourself and use the brain god gave you.
Sure, I agree that the large space IS abit "wierd", but as it was stated when it came out and most people agreed on, its was a PR-stunt.
Google makes qualitystuff, not some junk who was pieced together to attract people. This is pure quality. Searchengine is the best, Gmail is the best free e-mailservice, Google Earth ain't bad at all, and I bet the IM won't suck.
