Google introduced their Google Talk internet messaging/talk program today. I've tried it out and I like it...for what little...very little...messaging I do. If you are a Gmail user, it's a natural addition. It seamlessly integrates with Gmail and provides its own notifier program (with your permission it automatically uninstalls Gmail Notifer during installation.)
Now if my friends and family would just sign up!
Here is what Google says about their product:
They say talk is cheap. Google thinks it should be free. Google Talk enables you to call or send instant messages to your friends for free–anytime, anywhere in the world. Google Talk offers you:Posted by Don |* Choice: Get in touch over email, IM or a call
* Quality: Talk through your computer but hear your friends as if they were in the same room
* Convenience: Your Gmail contacts are pre-loaded into Google Talk so inviting or talking to your friends is just a click away

How does it work? Would you please explain it some? Everyone's raving about it.. I'm just not sure how it's different than other messaging thingies.
Well, right now some people are complaining that it's not different from other messaging thingies. Yahoo, in particular, has more features. However, Google Talk is still "beta" and it will almost certainly continue to improve and offer new features just like Gmail has evolved. Right now Google Talk's claim to fame is that it seamlessly integrates with Gmail and has the classic Google speed and zen of simply design without all the advertising and gunk that comes with other messaging programs.
As to how it works, if you can operate any other messaging program you can operate Google's. Just download and run it. It's very intuitive. The only "problem" is that you've got to get the people you want to chat/talk with to sign up.
