Google Chat through Gmail

Yah, I've got that link as well. The only thing I can do now is go into the settings and choose if I want to save chat logs or not.

although i do show a 'Chat's' link on my left bar now...but it just takes me to history

chat will be available in few weeks.
 
I've been playing around with it all day, it works great! No problems with the strict firewall at school either. The chat windows are pretty small but stay out of the way in the lower right hand corner so you can still see your emails.

Anybody else get it yet?

i just checked and i've got it now too. :thumbsup:
 
I have it on my account, but none of my friends have it on their account, so its kinda useless so far for me.
 
While the chat feature is nice. I think Google really screwed up here. Companies like Websense block Gmail because of the chat function.

I cannot access Gmail at the library or at school.

MAJOR PROBLEM

Classes nearly came to halt when this first happened. 90% of the teachers transfer files from home to school via Gmail, so they did not have their notes, tests, quizzes, etc for that day. In comp sci, most of the students uses GMail to store their programs so we can work at school or home. That class came to a halt.

I'm pretty sure flash drive sales have skyrocketed in the past few days.
 
this is pretty cool! ... I like the pop-in and pop-out feature.

It stores conversations into the Chats folder too...
Now I wish it would just interface with AIM users as well... 🙁
 
heh, I opened google talk and one of my old pals I invited a while ago was online so I message him and he was like "wtf?!" I said "what?"

..."I never downloaded google talk, this is crazy, how are you doing this?" 😛

very cool!
