Bold in Google Talk

[Rob9874]

Type * before and after the word, and it will bold it.

Example: *bold*

[So]

uh...neat?

 

[Rob9874]

Yes it's neat, because they haven't released any font changes yet. I stumbled onto this one early. In their FAQs, there's a question about changing font, and their response is:

"Not yet. Google Talk doesn't offer different fonts or rich text options. We're working hard on new features, and look forward to announcing them as they become available."

Thanks for replying anyway.

Not with the IM program. Must be the chat feature in the web email client.
