Google Launches Google Talk

Google followed up its launch of the Google Desktop with the Google Talk, Googles IM Client.

This much talked about IM client as expected supports the popular Jabber IM Standard and can exchange messages with other clients supporting the standard XMPP Protocol like Trillian, GAIM, iChat, Adium, and Psi. Google says it will soon support MSN Messenger and Yahoo Messenger.

Though they claim that Google Talk will work across Firewalls, I havent been successful as yet in getting it to work across the firewall at my office. :(

Google Talk looks lean and mean. Its clean, with no unnecessary graphics or ads. It looks all set to take on MSN, Yahoo and anybody else.

So guys check it out!!!
