Google talk? - WiiTalk

Is there anyone here who has it, with the gmail account or otherwise, and is there a way we can put that in our profile, just like yahoo messenger, aim, and ICQ? I use google talk during the course of the day and it seems there aren't many aim users here.

Well, what does it look like most members have?
I myself use yahoo, as it is cross compatible with MSN.

I'm not sure what most have, but I know I haven't seen much aim. I don't use yahoo messenger or MSN.

If you have gmail, its the chat service that comes with it. You can also download it separately. Seems like its bigger here in the states.

I too never heard of it until now, maybe because it seems like in the 3 regions I lived in (South Cali, Phoenix, Arkansas) they all used Yahoo or MSN, with the few kids using AIM.

I've been all east coast. Everyone I know, even those my age (around 22) use aim or google at this point. Its easier for me to use google at work, since I don't have to download anything and some of my coworkers use it to converse about work around the building.

I have never heard of this myself either, Maybe it will get more and more popular and could get ammended into profiles somehow? I use MSN at home and MSN Web Messenger at work lol.

I used to religiously use MSN or WLM as it is now

Now I use none of them

Gone off it all.. have any of you noticed how Facebook has built in chat now too though.. sweet
