Well you know I do lol.

I used to be an MSN head back in the day, then it was AIM for a long time.....these days GTalk is the only IM client I use....everyone I need to talk to is on there.

Unfortunately nobody I know uses these.
I have a gmail account if it's the same as google mail however it turned to be my spam account. I used it to register on ONE site and now I get up to 200 spam letters/day.
I'll definately register another gmail account since it's the best email service.

It's weird. A year ago I didn't have any Gtalk contacts. Now with the popularity of Gmail and Android everyone I need to talk to on IM has Gtalk - my wife, my friends, my bandmates, my music industry contacts.

I use Skype for video calls though - I could do that through the GTalk desktop or web clients but the video calls on Skype are a little bit more stable right now.

I had only one friend on Gmail but on the other hand that might be because here in Poland people use our local messengers (gadu-gadu mostly) and community sites. I only have like 5 Polish friends on Facebook and more than 200 on Grono.net which is an older Polish community site. That's probably because we had our community sites before those American ones became popular and that's enough for most people here. I use facebook, skype and msn to be in touch with a few of my friends from abroad.

I still try to log in with Kopete into Gtalk and couldn't manage it so far. I don't have a gmail email address, but it's supposed to work anyway. It doesn't so far. But somehow I doubt that people for this board can help me with that problem.

I'd like to use it but nobody I know uses it. People either use just facebook to chat these days or they just text since most people I know have unlimited texts.

pm me your gmail addresses. i'll add whoever wants to give theirs out.

reason being because i know android is developing and other people, like myself, would want to take advantage of as many google services as possible hence creating gmail/gtalk accounts.

i only have one person on gmail because i dont know many users signed up to that particular service. just a few business people - but that doesnt count for gtalk.

I use gmail. Dont know what Google Talk is... if its like a messaging service, nope, go skype!
If you have a Gmail account you already automatically have a GTalk account. But yeah, Skype rules too. Between GTalk and Skype, I'm sorted.

I have Gtalk and only speak with Casey on it lol
you two have such a wonderful relationship.

i dont use gtalk much, but would like to use it occassionally. dont just want to talk to 1 person on there. just a few people so its not always the same old thing. im not even that close with the only person ive got on gtalk. everyone i know is on windows live and is unwilling to make google accounts.
