Google Talk - Released!
It seems yesterday's stream of rumors were true! Google announced and released Google Talk early this morning. Like GMail, Google Talk is considered to be in Beta right now, so everyone can expect the features of Google Talk to expand in the months to come! A Gmail account is required to use the service.
Google believes that users should have a choice in what applications they use for communication. Built to support industry standards, Google Talk enables Google users to connect to the Google Talk service and exchange IMs using any client that does the same, including Trillian, Adium, iChat, GAIM, and Psi.
The company is also committed to working with other service providers to create a federation model that enables users on any member network to talk to users on any other member network in a secure and abuse-free manner. Google is currently working with EarthLink to federate with their Vling communications service and with Sipphone on federating their Gizmo Project.
