Get ready for Google Talk

Wednesday, August 24th, 2005

Google is all set to unveil its own instant messaging platform called Google Talk. Looking at its previous releases we can expect IM to be unique among all the existing IM’s. Google’s presence in IM will fill the significant gap in offerings that Google has compared to other portals like MSN, Yahoo. Some reports mention that Google Talk will go beyond text-based instant messaging using a computer keyboard to let users hold voice conversations with other computer users. If it is really true then Google will also place itself in VoIP space competing with Skype which has really attracted a lot of people. Looking forward to Google Talk.
