Chat with Family and Friends with Google Instant Messanger and Voice Over Ip Technology
Google Talk offers Basic IM capabilities, high-quality and easy to use VoIP, complete integration with Gmail, and a simple, ads-free interface. You sign in with your Gmail account and are immediately presented with your buddy list. There's an Add Friend button, a "Search all contacts" field which searches both your Google Talk and Gmail contacts, and a drop-down under your name that lets you set your available/unavailable status and messages. There's also an Inbox button which takes you to Gmail, plus Help and Settings.
A great feature is that you can select a Chat Theme, that will determine how conversations look. Another cool feature is buddy icons that you can set for people.
Google Talk has a nice interface, works quickly and is generally a great product.
