Just learned from Markku’s site that Google now has its own messenger called Google Talk. Of course, I excitedly downloaded it and immediately invited my friends.

Google Talk has a great UI, though it’s perhaps not meant to compete with the current offerings, Yahoo! or MSN or AOL. Love it. I added only a few people in it so it can be used strictly for work 😉
I need someone to talk to using Google Talk. If you have a few minutes so I can test it out, I would appreciate it very much.

Thanks
