Gabber!

AOLhell and MenSN is teh suckz ROFL!!!111

Goggle rulez!

I don’t know what it is. It’s the missing link, the fifth element. It adds that last touch of perfection to every message you send.

True!

I may have the looks of a deformed ox,the charm of a dead cabbage and the typographical skills of a lummox - but now, thanks to Google, I am cooler than a freezer full of ice. In the north pole. In winter. At night. During a snow storm. On the coldest day of the year. Etc.

LOL! OMFG … Google Talk r0xx0rs t3h b1g!!111oneone

Google suck! They’re supposed to be this all mighty company yet they can’t even develop products to work on 98? Well screw you google! Microsoft may be money hungry bastards, but atleast they consider the people stuck on older OSes.

You’ve got to admire Google though - what other company can release fairly average, 5-year-old products and still be worshipped as demigods for doing it?

Their software development department might not be all they’re cracked up to be (excluding the search which they still do best), but their marketing/PR department are lightyears ahead of others.

That ultimatley shows how excited you are.

I’ll always remember Google for making the “BETA” tag on public releases cool

Google is today worshipped as demigods for the release of IM/VoIP not because it works, but because of their great move. The move to OPEN standandards.
It is called “Don’t be evil” … at some time they will need to be evil, and this will be a difficult time, but for now, they’re doing everything just right

Google is evil. “Leg Goo” is an anagram of Google!

Mind you, so is “Go Lego” which, as any kid of the 80s will tell you, Lego rocks. It’s like a computer game without cheats or a computer.

You can also re-create Tetris with lego.

Just hold up suitably shaped pieces and make beeping noises as you lower them to the floor.

Beep. Beep. Beep. Click.

You do that too?

I would have expected a better program than this horridly designed interface, but then again Google doesn’t do the best job in the design department. Yahoo and MSN has Google beat by miles.

Albeit, I’ll be impressed when they allow msn/yim/aol buddies in as well, but I still won’t use it. I like having the unique features of each messenger app.

Matt. I love you. You’re funnier than Chris, well sometimes.

Best. Entry. Ever. (*wub* it!)

w00t, lego!

So, you think it’s pretty awesome as well, huh Matt?

It kicks so much ass, the local hospitals have been filling up with ass-less patients.

The best feature Google has coded into this IM and the only one I can’t find in MSN, Y!, Psi or yes even Adium is “simplicity” (or Gimplicity :P). I’m using this GTalk/Gabber now on my parent’s pc so they can enter the world of chatting without the need to learn first how to _navigate_ through the software!

Google did it again!
Now if it would only support avatars…

Bah, it doesn’t need avatars! It needs multiple people in a conversation and smilies. That’s it!

Avatars help recognising people in a meeting when their names don’t say anything to you.

They take simplicity to a whole new level. Leaving out features - genius!

NEW: Invision Power Board ‘Lite’ Public Release BETA 4 Edition 1.0 Build Date 24/19/05 23:57

Un-needed and rarely used functions such post new topic, post reply, post poll removed. Cleaner interface design, multi-coloured fonts.

I like the simple and useable interface, it doesn’t have anything confusing to clog it up and it looks reasonably good.

I’m with Phil. Nothing good to say about it… I think I’d better delete this…thing…and reinstall my Gmail Notifier.

By the way, Lego really, really rocks!

Uhmm, i really hope that was a sarcastic post.

Ok with a few other basic features it could really take off, and not the usual “Oh it’s Google it must rock!”. But somehow i doubt many people will suddenly switch to using this from other IM systems.

Deleted GoogleTalk, Adium account removed.

@Phil: No, it is not lacking vital functions like in your example of an IPB Lite..

Hi MAT..I was searching the net and found a reference
that you have worked on MystCommunity a lot,
do you know why they are down for a day and now
two currently???Sorry to be off topic??
thanx

Ahh, Lego!! it is indeed the coolest thing that I’ve had to play with in the 80’s!! :p

Google is going to take over the world… scratch that, the internet. They’ve got Google Earth!

But I heard they are making an OS and a browser. Can’t wait for those. I love google to death and would trust them with my life…

Pure genious Matt, had me fallin out a my chair for hours

Hey Matt, I’m so desperate now, that anything seems worth a shot. How do you get the AJAX parser to send characters such as ” … to PHP, and have PHP decode it, without problems? I’ve written a function to encode it to UTF8 (” …) but html_entity_decode won’t turn them in to actual characters. I’ve looked at IPB 2.1 and it parses them fine, but I can’t work out how!

Damn thing parsed them, I’ve encoded them to ” … but html_entity_decode won’t convert them back to ” … again. Any help on how you did it please??

As I said… worth a try

Oh, looks like you just leave them as html entities…

So Matt, what’s your GoogleTalk info? >:)

Matt, I would also be interested to know it

Pah, the people so brazenly asking for the google talk account of Matt himself. pfft! I still have to work my way up to wolfie, never mind Matt.

It definetly needs nomicons

Take a ugess, I’ll give you a clue… it ends in @gmail.com
I guessed, and added someone called Matt Mecham, wether or not it’s the right one, I don’t know
