I like the simple interface of Google Talk. But like most people, I’m faced with the reality that I have a lot of contacts on other IM networks. Getting them to switch is not always an option. Thankfully, you can use Google Talk to chat with your friends and associates on any IM network, and you don’t have to wait another day.
I’ve put together a step-by-step guide that will let you use Google Talk as a multi-network instant messaging client, connecting to AIM, Yahoo!, MSN Messenger and others. No waiting necessary. Check it out at BigBlueBall.
