Update: Myself and Hikaru79 tested out the VOIP stuff and it worked really well. It's comparable to a phone (although I'd say better); and it's WAY better then my cell phone is. Anyways I'm off to work, but have fun experimenting!

Yeah, that's point of this thread. Since this is a new service right, so no one has any contact to add. Therefore, we're starting a little community here. I have, hm, 4 people on an 2 waiting. (That would be Martin and Cervantes) ;)

Update: Call quality is awsome. But make sure the other person you're speaking with has headphones, because you really trip yourself out when speaking, since you hear what you just said 2 seconds ago. Make youself sound like an idiot on the mic. :P

I like their rename option, I think you can do it on msn, its just less accessible.
Now you are: cervantes, cornflake, hikaru, martin, notoroge and wtd. And if coutsos signs on, you know what his name is gonna be ... not coutsos on my list thats for sure ;)

hm... and it automatically sorted everything too.

Hence, why both parties should use head-sets if possible. This isn't just about Google. Just, when talking online in general.

Since it's just Jabber, perhaps some other Jabber clients already have this, just not Gaim? And if not, now that Google Talk uses it, and it is not just some fringe player, perhaps more devs will focus on client development for Jabber. Maybe. We can hope.

For those on a Mac, googleTalk is added as a jabber account, and connect server is talk.google.com the rest is default.

yea official google client.

some experiences:

1. I go to a website, it immediately says "not found", I close google talk, I go to it again, it loads.

2. I download a video file, instead of downloading it, it streams... wmv... in quicktime o0 . And I can't right click and save as. I close google talk, it works as I click it.

3. I download a file, it says blah blah hostname cannot be found, close google talk, retry, it works.

no firewall, one router, no anti virus.
