Google Talk (Beta)
I actually oso very hairan why I din post any of the CNY photos. Actually I wanted to post one, cos all the photos in my home laptop, while I usually blog in the office during office hour which everyone bz working and meeting and I blogging. Another reason is because I usually blogging during office hour so sometimes I very bz working and no time to think about it.
Yesterday I tried a new software called Google Talk, a very light software, less than 1MB, you can visit their website http://www.google.com/talk/ for more info and download it.
I actually like that software because it is really small in size, won’t cause your computer lag or high load. But of course, their interface is very simple, less function, which is different with YM and MSN with plenty of entertainment and useful function.
You need a Gmail account to use this software. Actually it is a software for ppl to communicate via talking (like skype which I never use before). However it has a IM function as well, you can chat with your frens if you dun have a sweet voice.
You may notice there’s a ‘Chats’ folder appeared in your Gmail account. The ‘Chats’ in your Gmail is cool, since you’ve a huge space in your Gmail account, you can always save your conversation history in your Gmail account instead of your hard drive, in my opinion, it is better to save the conversation history online because it’s more secure as only you will access your Gmail account. At the navigation column, you can also see who is online in the ‘Quick Contacts’.
Basically this is the Google Talk window, very simple.. there’s no ads.. as for now.
As usual, you will see notification for new email received in your Gmail account.
I din try out the talking function because I dun have a mic in office. If got mic oso cannot la cos boss is just sitting beside me :P
You may give this beta version a try, the requirement is you must have a Gmail account. No ads, no pop up, with basic function, fast & smooth, but no fancy function like drawing a kukuciao for your friend.
