Google Talk

Does anyone use Google Talk? It's a no-frills IM program, but the phone feature is amazingly clear. It's pretty cool.

Yeah, the phone feature is very clear...it's like a slimmed down Skype (which is really good especially for video conferencing). I like how you can use your gmail account to login and it also checks your gmail.

I've read somewhere that eventually they're going to integrate file and picture transfers, and eventually it'll lead to video conferencing. I use it right now but I really honestly miss the file transferring abilities of almost every other IM program out there. Hopefully it comes sooner than later.

the only thing i dont like about it is that you can't have a 3 way chat, like in AIM you could create a room; but i dont see that in google talk
