Google Talk

Wed, 24 Aug 2005 at 10:14 • Chetan • Filed under Software, Technology

Is this a coincidence or what? Just when I was going after the most popular IM clients about how big and unusable they’re when it comes to downloading and updating software, Google releases yet another app which is under 1MB and is capable of audio. They seem to have a feel for things like these. And, I noticed. Now, I can easily send a link to my mom and ask her to download Google Talk. It could take 10 minutes on a dial-up. But hell, it’s possible to download in one piece.

MSN and Y! shame on you. And, adios. It’s been a pleasure. I didn’t use MSN much anyway thanks to its sign-in-within-30-days-or-get-lost feature. Also, I never really used Skype. Now, I don’t need to =).
