There are reports of a new soon to be released Google Talk program and it isn’t what you think as it is primarily and IM program. But as many have surmised, how long will it be before the company comes out with a VoIP package? In my opinion, it won’t take long for the search engine leader to add VoIP into their mix.
With Google’ role as indexer of the world’s information already spelled out how much time will it take for them to offer free calling with the added convenience of seeing targeted ads regarding what you are speaking about. You get the point. You call Dominos and a Pizza Hut ad flashes.
You call your spouse to tell you are working late once again and an ad pops from private investigators in your area willing to confirm you’re spouse is “actually” working. Oh it gets better still. You call
Can such a concept fly? Does it have legs? Well this is exactly what happens with Gmail so what is the problem? Of course if there is a problem it may be that phone calls are considered more intimate than e-mails. Are they really? Perhaps in some cases. But the line between phone calls and e-mail is blurring.
Privacy advocates may be up in arms but in the end if people want free phone calls in an interface that ties into their chat, e-mail and Google search they will use the service.
When you think of the world’s information, you don’t usually think of all the world’s phone calls but with a good amount of speech recognition equipment it seems like this is idea is easy to implement.
The question becomes that if Google comes out with such a service that introduces free calling to people that aren’t using Skype (and even those who are), when will our industry ever get to the point of selling people real enhanced services?
Will Google’s widely rumored foray into VoIP benefit the VoIP industry? For that matter does Skype benefit the VoIP community at all?
I have trouble answering these questions as tremendous VoIP awareness can be attributed to Skype and potentially Google. And of course this article would not be complete if Vonage wasn’t mentioned as a tremendous driver of VoIP awareness.
If we can get the entire world using VoIP perhaps there will then be room for services like distinctive ring and others that people will pay for. The question is will Google counter every paid service with a free incremental improvements to Gphone or whatever they call their potential VoIP service?
One thing is for sure. If you are a VoIP service provider, you have more opportunity now than ever before. You also have more potential competition than ever before. These are some of the issues we will be discussing at TMC’s upcoming Internet Telephony Conference & Expo in

By the looks of it, Google Talk for Windows 9x is in high demand. I personally couldn't care less, but I would like to point out that the program itself seems quite basic. I don't believe it would be too difficult to write it for Win9x.

hi!Can I get google talk for windows 98.
We’re looking for a woman to work in our company. She should have office experience, know how to type letters, memos, reports etc, on the computer. She should answer phone calls, take messages and appointments for spelling. She must know how to prepare good coffee and how to clean the office, because she may occasionally do that. Finally, she should have nice appearance and verbal fluency. If you think you have those qualities, write to us.
By the way, is there a google talk version for windows 98?
I agree in general with what everyone here seems to say- we need Gtalk for win98 users! If there is any way this is possible, please do so. I can't understand why something like Gtalk, which my friends enjoy, isn't available to many people. Why is googletalk the only service that does not reach win98? is there something wrong with the programming?
please send me gmail talk exe file
Google Talk For Windows 98
Google Talk is just a fancy Jabber (www.jabber.org) client.
If you need to connect to Google Talk from windows 98, download Psi, or Miranda, or GAIM, or any other jabber compatible IM client.
http://psi-im.org/
http://www.miranda-im.org/
http://gaim.sf.net/
Or, you can always use a web-based solution:
http://www.gtalkr.com/
http://www.meebo.com/
Or you could upgrade your systems to an OS that actually takes advantage of the modern hardware available. XP hasn't been unstable since pre-SP1.

Hi is there a google talk for windows 98. If yes kindly provide the URL from where i can download the same.
Well One of our office receptionists asked me to get gmail. I had earlier ran gmail in windows 2000. but it refused to install in windows 98
It gave an error message that it requires windows 2000, XP or advance server.
The best idea is to upgrade the system to windows 2000 with Service Pack 4. It is very stable.
I loved Windows 98 like anyone did. But Microsoft have already dropped support for it. Also some new software do not get installed in windows 98
