Technically Speaking

Google enters the IM arena with an application that can make phone calls or IM over the internet. The technology is on par with that provided by Skype and thus Google is now in direct competition with them. The official launch date of the application is today and I am eager to try it out when I get home tonight.

When you go to download Google Talk, this will be what you’ll see:

They say talk is cheap. Google thinks it should be free. Google Talk enables you to call or send instant messages to your friends for free–anytime, anywhere in the world. Google Talk offers you:

* Choice: Get in touch how and when you want to–over email, IM or a call

* Quality: Talk through your computer but hear your friends as if they were in the same room

* Convenience: Your Gmail contacts are pre-loaded into Google Talk so inviting or talking to your friends is just a click away

Google Talk is in beta and requires a Gmail username and password.

Download it here and if you need a Gmail account send me and email @ Tony-at-tonytalkstech.com and I will do what I can to give you an account. I don’t have many to give out at onetime so you may have to be patient if your requesting an email account.

Ok,…I have finally made a little time to upgrade and redesign this site. It has been a long time coming but it will take a little longer than I hoped. Over the next few days I will be making change here and there to get this template to my liking. Gone is the robot at the bottom that so many have complained about. I will try to keep this version clean and simple. After this project is complete I will have to find some time to get back into the swing of thing in terms of blogging again. So hold tight and watch the magic.
