GMail and Google Talk

If you haven’t heard, Google announced an integration between Google Talk and GMail. This means Google Talk users will now be able to chat directly in the browser. Even more, GMail users will be able to chat with each other, without having to install Google Talk. A step closer to complete web-based applications.

In addition, GMail now has an option to archive Google Talk chats. I am very excited about this. I could not even begin to tell you how many times I needed to reference an old conversation and could not recall if it was email or IM. Now it does not matter.

  1. Can’t wait for Google to turn it on for me. Sure would be nice if they could get it together enough to roll out a new feature to everyone simultaneously.

  2. Some features they do (like the web clips, I believe), but I’m not sure why others take so long.
