Google: Chat!!!

http://www.smashsworld.com/2005/08/im-on-google-talk-right-now.php

So here is a sight that describes the setup procedure for google talk:

1) Get GAIM if not already have it.

2) Add an account, select "Jabber" as the protocol.
3) Your screen name is everything before the '@gmail.com'.
4) Server is 'gmail.com'.
5) Click "show more options" and make sure "use TLS if available" is checked. Leave "Force old SSL" and "allow plaintext..." unchecked for now. Connection port should be 5222, connection server should be 'talk.google.com' without the quotes.
6) Ta-da! Just login and you should be good-to-go.


P.S. If you need an gmail account, just email me at "andrusw @ gmail . com"
