Google seems to be entering every field they can. And usually, they end up being the best at what they do, so I think this is definitely worth a look.

(They are also working on a translation services that translates languages on the fly, so people from two different countries and chat without any problems - it's also the most accurate translation available. Free!)

Google is also in the plans to work the Apple and iTunes.

I was reading about this yesterday, wonder if it's worth a damn.

I use Trillian, but I would swtich if something better came around. But from what I see, this doesn't connect to ICQ, AIM, or Y! or MSN.

That's true - but I imagine there is a plugin, or one in the works, that will allow you to use this through Trillian.

So far I like this, since it is so integrated with gmail and voice.

Well, it says it works with Trillian Pro, which is the paid version.

I have it.

Maybe I should try it.

You need to be invited to gmail.

Let me know your email and I'll send you an invite.
