Nice app, still missing the AIM integration that gmail's talk client has but that can be cured with PSI and a jabber transport. It would also be nice to see video support without external applications. I dont really know how well standalone IM clients are going to do nowadays though when its easy and convenient to do the same thing at gmail.com and a few other sites.

I used to use Windows Live Messenger, but I didn't like the advertisements in the interface and nor did I like the textual advertising in the program. That's why I downloaded Google Talk and I can describe it in a few words : Easy to use, nice interface, not loaded with features that you don't use, sorry Windows Live Messenger fans, and it's indeed lightweighted and doesn't take a long time to load. Although, I would have liked it to have video ( webcam ) abilities as well. I haven't found a solution for that yet. Google Talk is a great program to use and easy to use ! Also ExtendedTalk, an add-on for Google Talk, similar to MSN Plus! Live, adds a lot of features to the program.

My independent reviews about G-talk is, its simply the best. Most easy to use, integrated with gmail, a light application, and a crystal clear voice communication, which is seriously lacking in Yahoo IM. Both MSN & Yahoo IM are very heavy to use. Due to this most of us have made it as a main IM application. Me and my brother cannot imagine what a life can be without Gtalk (he lives in US and I m in India..)

The download provided is for 1.0.0.100 (from here and directly on the google talk page). Not sure if it auto updates to the current build or what? I like Google Talk, its simplicity and interface. It's not astounding but it meets my needs well.
